Getting Started
Adding memory (optional)
Do not try to remove a memory module with the
computer turned on. You can damage the computer and
the memory module.
Do not remove the memory module while the computer
is in Sleep or Hibernation mode. The computer could
hang up the next time you turn it on and data in memory
will be lost. In either of the above cases, the Sleep
configuration will not be saved.
6 Place a soft cloth on the work surface to prevent
scratching the top cover of the computer, and then place
the computer upside down on the cloth.
7 Remove the main battery. For information on removing
the battery, see “Removing the battery from the
computer” on page 100.
To locate your memory module slot cover, please refer to
your Quick Start document.
8 Using a small Phillips screwdriver, loosen the captive
screw(s) that secure the memory module slot cover.
9 Remove the memory module slot cover.
10 Place the screw(s) 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.
11 Carefully remove the new memory module from its
antistatic packaging, without touching its connector.
12 Locate an empty memory module slot on the underside
of the computer.
