sockets.

Removing Memory Modules
WARNING: The memory modules are hot to touch for some time after the system
has been powered down. Allow time for the memory modules to cool before
handling them. Handle the memory modules by the card edges and avoid touching
the components on the memory module.
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You
should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.
CAUTION: To ensure proper system cooling, memory-module blanks must be
installed in any memory socket that is not occupied. Remove memory-module
blanks only if you intend to install memory modules in those sockets.
