Additional Configuration and Maintenance Tasks
Step 5 To position the DIMM for insertion, orient it at the same angle as the DIMM socket. The two notches (keys) on the bottom edge of the module ensure that the DIMM edge connector is registered properly in the socket. (See Figure 22.)
If necessary, rock the DIMM back and forth gently to align it in the socket.

Caution When inserting DIMMs into a socket, apply firm, but not excessive, pressure. If
you damage a DIMM socket, you must return the line card for repair.
Step 6 Gently insert the DIMM into the socket and push until the DIMM snaps into place and the release lever is flush against the side of the socket.
Step 7 Verify that the release lever is flush against the side of the socket. If it is not, the DIMM might not be seated properly. On a socket with dual release levers, both levers should be flush against the sides of the DIMM.
If the module appears misaligned, carefully remove it and reseat it, ensuring that the release lever is flush against the side of the DIMM socket.
Step 8 Repeat Step 3 through Step 7 to install any remaining DIMMs for your memory configuration.
