Point to note about memory module error

If you install a memory module that is not compatible with the computer, the Power indicator flashes (on for 0.5 seconds, off for 0.5 seconds) in the following ways;

■If there is only an error in Slot A: repeatedly flashes orange twice, then blue.

■If there is only an error in Slot B: repeatedly flashes orange, then blue twice.

■If there is an error in Slot A and in Slot B: repeatedly flashes orange twice, then blue twice.

In all instances you should shut down the computer and remove the incompatible module(s).

Use a point size 0 Phillips screwdriver to remove and fasten the screws - the use of an incorrect screwdriver can damage the screw heads.
