As the subject states, my Rowe/AMI CD100-C keeps forgetting its settings after 1-2 days off. Do these have a CMOS battery that needs to be replaced as on a computer's motherboard? Thanks in advance for any info!


Yes, and it is a soldered in lithium battery. Rowe very nicely did not
use Ni-Cad rechargeable batteries which can leak with bad results for
the CD machines AFAIK!

Check across the battery - should be at least 2.5VDC to 3.0VDC. Below
that and it is time to replace it.
