Install a memory module
To install the DIMM, do the following:
1. Turn off the computer; then disconnect the ac adapter and all cables from
the computer.
2. Close the computer display, and turn it over.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Loosen the screw on the memory slot cover; then remove the cover.
If the SO-DIMM is already in the memory slot, remove it to make room
for the new one by pressing out on the latches on both edges of the socket
at the same time. Be sure to save it for future use.
5. Find the notch on the side of the SO-DIMM.
Attention: To avoid damaging the SO-DIMM, do not touch its contact
edge.
6. With the notched end of the SO-DIMM toward the right side of the socket,
insert the SO-DIMM into the socket at an angle of about 20 degrees 1;
then press it firmly 2.
