To insert a SLIM into its connector follow these steps:

1. Place the SLIM into the socket almost vertically (about a 75

degree angle), making sure to align it properly before

inserting it into the socket.

2. Press downward and sideways on the SLIM until it latches

into the socket. Do NOT force the SLIM, the installation

process requires a small amount of force and should be very

smooth and easy. If you experience resistance, check the

alignment and insertion depth of the SLIM. Refer to

Appendix D: SLIM Insertion/Removal regarding the

insertion of a SLIM.
