1. Here you can see the BIOS battery. Lift the keyboard and carefully lift the bronze sheet metal piece. (If you own
   the E7110, you need to remove a screw near the Firewire-port to be able to bend the metal sheet up. Thanks to
   Maris F. for this hint.)

1. Pull out the small plug and wait about a minute.

1. Assemble the notebook the other way around and smile. You just reset your BIOS password although Fujitsu-Siemens
   says you have to take your notebook to a service point to let it be done. (because the Lifebook E-series is **so**
   secure LOL )
