Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

That is not the original battery (which is a good thing!)  The original 
is a blue cylinder about the size of a roll of film and says 'Varta' (the 
manufacturer) on it.  A CR2032 is a common lithium coin cell, these don't 
leak unless they get very, very hot, and then it is a thin vapor that is 
very poisonous.  This is not ever going to be a problem unless the battry 
is thrown into a fire.

  You can measure the battery voltage and see if it is near 3.0V.  If so, 
it is still good.  If it is below 2.0V, time to swap it out for a new one.
