the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system.

and then unplugging the AC adapter from the computer.
4. Remove the battery (see

5. Remove the service access cover (see
Service access cover on page 46).
Remove an expansion memory module:

expansion memory module. (The edge of the module opposite the slot rises away from
the computer.)
2. Remove the expansion memory module (2) by pulling the module away from the slot at an
angle.
NOTE: Memory modules are designed with a notch (3) to prevent incorrect installation into the
