Memory Upgrade Module

Your notebook has been configured with a minimum of 512 MB of high speed DDR2 533 MHz RAM factory installed. In addition to the installed memory, there is a second DIMM slot in which you can install a second module. You can also increase your notebook’s memory capacity by replacing the original module with a higher capacity module (2 GB maximum). The memory upgrade must be a dual-in-line 533 MHz DDR2 module. (To be certain the correct module is used, you should only use Fujitsu memory modules. To order, go to the Fujitsu accessories website: www.shopfujitsu.com).

INSTALLING A MEMORY MODULE

1.Turn off power to your notebook and remove any attached power adapter (AC or auto/airline).

■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.

■The memory upgrade module can be severely damaged by electrostatic dis- charge (ESD). To minimize risk to the module, observe the following precau- tions:

■Before handling a memory module, touch a grounded metal object to discharge static electricity built up in your body.

■When installing or removing a memory module, hold it by the edge so as not to touch any contacts or chips. Be careful not to touch any internal computer terminals or components; the oil from your fingers could cause a short circuit.

■Power down your system before adding or removing memory modules. Even if the system is in hibernate or standby states, data could be lost or the memory could be damaged if power is still available to the system.

2.Make sure that all connector covers are closed.

3.Turn the notebook bottom side up.

4.Remove the memory upgrade compartment screws, then remove the cover. (Figure 4-10)
