Memory Upgrade

Module

Your LifeBook comes with 64MB or 128MB high speed Synchronous Dynamic RAM (SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your LifeBook’s memory capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade module. You can also replace the original memory module with a higher capacity module. The memory upgrade must be a dual- in-line (DIMM) SDRAM module, however it can be any capacity up to 512MB (total).

C A U T I O N

Do not remove any screws from the memory upgrade module compartment, except the ones specifically shown in the directions for installing and removing the memory upgrade module.

INSTALLING A MEMORY UPGRADE MODULE

1.Turn off power to your LifeBook using the power switch, and remove any power adapter

(AC or auto/airline).

2.Make sure that all the connector covers are closed.

3.Turn the LifeBook bottom side up, with the front panel toward you.

4.Remove the screw at the front of the memory upgrade module compartment. (Figure 4-10)

5.Remove the cover by tilting the front edge up and then pulling forward until the tabs on the cover are free.
