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.

CAUTION:

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

not to touch the memory module components or connectors.

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

page 77.

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 78.
4 Remove the cooling shroud. See "Removing the Cooling Shroud" on

page 90.

5 Press down on the ejectors on each end of the socket until the

memory-module blank pops out of the socket. See Figure 3-10.

NOTE:

Ensure that you retain any removed memory-module blanks for

future use.
