Static electricity can damage the memory module. Before you handle the
module, touch a grounded metal surface to discharge any static electricity
you may have built up.
To avoid damaging the memory module, be careful not to touch its gold
connector bar (on the side you insert into the computer).

bar faces the slot, fit the module into the socket.
8 Gently put the memory module connector down at an angle and press
down until the clips snap into place.
Do not force the module into position. The memory module should be
level when secured in place.
