1. Place the SLIM into the socket almost vertically (about 75-
degree angle), making sure that it is properly oriented and
fully inserted 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 force and should be very smooth and
easy. If you encounter resistance then re-check the orientation
and insertion depth.
