RAM Module

Inserting additional RAM modules and increasing memory will enable you to run Windows
and application software more easily, and to increase overall operating efficiency.
Use a RAM module meeting the RAM module specifications below. If a module is used
that does not meet the specifications, there are cases in which data may become unusable
or the computer may not operate properly. We recommend using the optional RAM module
(

Ÿ

“Specifications”).

CAUTION

RAM modules are extremely sensitive to static electricity. There are cases where
static electricity generated by the human body has adversely affected such
modules. When inserting or removing a RAM module, do not touch the terminals or
internal components, insert objects other than the module, or allow foreign particles
to enter. Doing so has been known to cause damage, fire or electric shock.

CAUTION

If the RAM module is difficult to insert or difficult to press down, do not force it.
Check once more to ensure that the module is positioned correctly.
