To upgrade memory:
1. Remove the pre-installed SO-DIMM, following these steps:
a. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 2.
b. Gently spread the retaining clips at each end of the SO-DIMM socket. The SO-DIMM
pops out of the socket.
c. Hold the SO-DIMM by the edges, lift it away from the socket, and store it in an
anti-static package.
d. Reinstall and reconnect any parts you removed or disconnected to reach the SO-DIMM
sockets.
e. Replace the computer’s cover and reconnect the AC power cord.
2. Install the new SO-DIMM, following these steps:
a. Align the small notch at the bottom edge of the SO-DIMM with the key in the socket
(A).
b. Insert the bottom edge of the SO-DIMM into the socket.
c. When the SO-DIMM is inserted, push down on the outer edge of the SO-DIMM (B)
until the retaining clips snap into place. Make sure the clips are firmly in place (C).
