Removal and replacement procedures 53

To install a memory module:

1.

Perform the pre-installation procedure.

2.

If necessary, remove any accessory boards or cables that prevent access to the DIMM slots.

3.

Locate an empty DIMM slot on the system board.

4.

If necessary, open the holding clips of the selected DIMM slot.

5.

Remove the memory module from its protective packaging, handling it by the edges.

6.

Install the memory module.

a.

Use both hands to hold the module by the edges, and then insert it perpendicularly into the
slot (1).
The DIMM slots are structured to ensure proper installation. If you insert a memory module
but it does not fit easily into the slot, you may have inserted it incorrectly. Reverse the

orientation of the module and insert it again.

b.

Press the module at both ends to seat it fully into the slot (2).
The holding clips will automatically lock into place once the module has been seated

properly.

7.

Perform the post-installation procedure.
