I don't have experience with that exact model, but I have disassembled and repaired a few Sony laptops. From my experience the CMOS battery is usually located towards the back (if you were facing the screen in a normal situation) under the keyboard. Before starting you should have a good #0 and #00 Phillips screwdriver with a magnetized tip. To access the keyboard screws, you must first remove the top panel. Usually it's one screw on the side, then slide the panel to the side and lift up. Be careful of the ribbon cables for the speakers and power button. You should be able to see the keyboard screws. You may have to remove some shielding to get to the battery. Usually the "=>" marked screws. If the battery is not a button cell type like the typical CR2032, look for a two wire lead (red/black). Some cooling fan wires look similar to the CMOS battery leads. The pigtail type batteries are usually stuck to the main-board with foam double sided tape or Velcro The next step is trying to find the replacement battery without paying an arm and a leg.
