Removing a memory module

Before removing the memory module, make sure the computer is in boot

mode. To remove the memory module:

1. Be sure the power is off and all cables are disconnected from the

computer.

2. Turn the computer upside down and remove the battery and the screws

securing the memory module cover.

3. Slide your fingernail or a thin object under the cover and lift it off.

4. Push the latches outwards to release the module. A spring will force

one end of the module up.

5. Grasp the module by the sides and pull it out.

6. Seat the cover and secure it with screws. Replace the battery pack.

■ If you use the computer for a long time, the memory modules will

become hot. In this case, let the memory modules cool to room

temperature before you replace them. Otherwise, you may get burnt if

you touch the memory modules.

■ Do not touch the connectors on the memory module or on the

computer. Debris on the connectors may cause memory access

problems.
