Getting Started
Adding memory (optional)
8 Place the screw and the cover in a safe place so that you can
retrieve them later.
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.
Avoid touching the connector on the memory module or on the
computer. Grease or dust on the connector may cause memory
access problems.
9 If replacing an existing memory module, remove this memory
module by performing steps 2-3 of “Removing a memory
module” on page 47.
10 Carefully remove the new memory module from its antistatic
packaging, without touching its connector.
11 Locate an empty memory module slot on the underside of the
computer.
12 Pick up the memory module by its sides, avoiding any contact
with its connector. Position the module toward the socket,
aligning the connector’s notch with the matching key in the
socket.
