Memory Upgrade Module

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with a minimum of 256 MB of high speed Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic RAM (dual-channel DDR2 667 SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your LifeBook notebook’s memory capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade must be a DDR2 667 MHz SO-DIMM module. To ensure 100% compati- bility, purchase the SDRAM module only from the Fujitsu web store at www.shopfujitsu.com.

■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 to the components.

■Be sure to 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.
