Align the grooves along the edges of the memory module with the locking tabs on the connector and insert the module into the connector firmly. If you find it difficult to install the memory module, gently prize the locking tabs outwards using the tip of your finger. Ensure that you hold the memory module along its left and right hand edges - the edges with the grooves in.

Never allow metal objects, such as screws, staples and paper clips, to enter the PC or keyboard. Foreign metal objects can create a short circuit, which can cause PC damage and fire, possibly resulting in serious injury.

Do not touch the connectors on the memory module or on the computer. Debris on the connectors may cause memory access problems.
