Hi!

Remove the external laptop battery first and make sure it's unplugged from the wall, then open the laptop up and remove the little coin cell CMOS battery, wait a couple minutes for it to be fully discharged before plugging everything back in, the BIOS password should have cleared after this.

Follow this guide for removing the CMOS battery:

Unfortunately, removing the external battery and the coin cell battery on this model will not reset the BIOS password. The password is flashed to an EEPROM chip on the board.
