For the complete technical manual to your product go to the following url.http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/cdt/hmm.html

from this find your model which is there, the manuals are in adobe PDF format so you need acrobat reader to view them.

161 is Cmos battery dead
163 is time and date not set

Hope this helps
