- Memory Upgrade Module
Memory Upgrade Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with a minimum of 256 MB of high speed Double Data Rate
Synchronous Dynamic RAM (DDR2-667 SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your notebook’s
memory capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade must be
a dual-in-line (DIMM) SDRAM module. To ensure 100% compatibility, purchase the SDRAM module
only from the Fujitsu web store at www.shopfujitsu.com.
Installing Memory Upgrade Modules
1 Turn off power to your notebook, remove any power adapter (AC or auto/airline). Remove the battery.
2 Make sure that all the connector covers are closed.
3 Turn the notebook bottom side up, and remove the screw from the memory upgrade module compartment.
4 Remove the cover.
5 Remove the memory upgrade module from the static guarded sleeve.
6 Align the memory upgrade module with the part side up. Align the connector edge of the memory upgrade
module with the connector slot in the compartment. Note that the memory modules will be “stacked” when both
are installed.
• DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS FROM THE MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE COMPARTMENT EXCEPT THE ONES
SPECIFICALLY SHOWN IN THE DIRECTIONS FOR INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE.
• THE MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE CAN BE SEVERELY DAMAGED BY ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD). TO
MINIMIZE RISK TO THE MODULE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:
• BEFORE HANDLING A MEMORY MODULE, TOUCH A GROUNDED METAL OBJECT TO DISCHARGE STATIC
ELECTRICITY BUILT UP IN YOUR BODY.
• WHEN INSTALLING OR REMOVING A MEMORY MODULE, HOLD IT BY THE EDGE SO AS NOT TO TOUCH ANY
CONTACTS OR CHIPS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO TOUCH ANY INTERNAL COMPUTER TERMINALS OR COMPONENTS;
THE OIL FROM YOUR FINGERS COULD CAUSE A SHORT TO THE COMPONENTS.
• BE SURE TO POWER DOWN YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE ADDING OR REMOVING MEMORY MODULES. EVEN IF THE
SYSTEM IS IN HIBERNATE OR STANDBY STATES, DATA COULD BE LOST OR THE MEMORY COULD BE DAMAGED
IF POWER IS STILL AVAILABLE TO THE SYSTEM.
