STEP 1

Disconnect the AC power cord and remove the computer cover.

STEP 2

Prior to handling the memory module(s), always touch an unpainted and grounded metal object or use a grounded antistatic wrist strap to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD).

STEP 3

If necessary, remove pre-existing memory by pressing down on the lock/ejector tabs. The tabs are located at both ends of the memory socket.

Note: Never apply pressure or handle the memory module on or around the Integrated Circuits (IC)! Always handle the memory with both hands positioned at the upper-most corners of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB).

STEP 4

Align the memory module key(s) along with the memory socket key(s) for proper installation.

STEP 5

Press the memory into the socket until the tabs click into place and secure the memory module.

STEP 6

Replace the computer cover and plug in the AC power cord.
