Installing Memory Modules

WARNING:

The memory modules are hot to touch for some time after the system

has been powered down. Allow time for the memory modules to cool before
handling them. Handle the memory modules by the card edges. Avoid touching the
components on the memory module and the connectors.

CAUTION:

Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You

should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.

1 If installed, remove the front bezel. See "Removing the Front Bezel" on

page 75.

2 Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect

the system from the electrical outlet.

3 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 76.
4 Remove the cooling shroud. See "Removing the Cooling Shroud" on

page 88.

5 If applicable, slide the front-chassis assembly away from the chassis. See

"Front-Chassis Assembly" on page 90.

6 Press down on the ejectors on each end of the socket until the memory-

module blank pops out of the socket. See Figure 3-11.

NOTE:

Ensure that you retain any removed memory-module blanks for

future use.

CAUTION:

Handle each memory module only on either card edge, making sure

not to touch the memory module components or connectors.
