See the Propaq Encore Service Manual for procedures on removing the battery.
Warning The monitor may not meet its performance specifications if stored or
used outside the specified temperature and humidity ranges.
Caution Storing the Propaq Encore for extended periods (more than three
months) without being connected to the ac power adapter can cause damage
to the battery. Even when the Propaq Encore is turned off, a very small
amount of current is drawn from the battery. For long-term storage, remove
the battery from the Propaq.
Removing the battery will cause programmed settings to be lost, but they can
be reprogrammed when the battery is replaced.
