Memory Module
Figure 13. Memory Module Removal
NOTICE: To avoid damaging the system board, you must remove the
main battery before you service the computer.
1. Remove the keyboard bezel.
2. Remove the keyboard assembly.
3. Ground yourself by touching the unpainted metal surface of an I/O
connector on the computer’s back panel.
4. To release the memory module from its socket, carefully spread apart
the inner tabs of the memory module socket just far enough for the
memory module to disengage from the socket (it should pop up slightly)
(see Figure 13).
5. Lift the memory module out of its socket.
To replace a memory module, perform the following steps:
1. Align the memory module’s edge connector with the slot in the center of
the memory module socket.
The memory module is keyed, or designed to fit into the socket in only one
direction. The slot on the system board is notched so that the memory
module can be firmly seated only one way.
2. With the module at a 45-degree angle, press the memory module’s edge
connector firmly into the memory module socket.
