CAUTION:

Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety instructions in the

Product

Information Guide.

NOTICE:

If your computer has only one memory module, install the memory module in the connector labeled

“DIMMA.”

NOTICE:

If you remove your original memory modules from the computer during a memory upgrade, keep them

separate from any new modules that you may have, even if you purchased the new modules from Dell. If possible,
do not

pair an original memory module with a new memory module. Otherwise, your computer may not function at

optimal performance.

NOTE:

Memory modules purchased from Dell are covered under your computer warranty.

Your computer has two user-accessible SODIMM sockets, one accessed from beneath the keyboard

(DIMM A), and the other accessed from the bottom of the computer (DIMM B).
To add or replace a memory module in the DIMM A connector:

1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 115.
2 Remove the hinge cover (see "Hinge Cover" on page 118).
3 Remove the keyboard (see "Keyboard" on page 119).

NOTICE:

To prevent damage to the memory module connector, do not use tools to spread the memory-module

securing clips.

4 If you are replacing a memory module, ground yourself and remove the existing module:

a

Use your fingertips to carefully spread apart the securing clips on each end of the memory module

connector until the module pops up.
