Caution:

Electro Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. Before touching the memory module, ensure that you are discharged of static elec- tricity by touching a grounded metal object.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

1.Turn the computer off and disconnect the AC power supply and any other cables from the unit.

Note: If the unit appears to be powered down, ensure that it is not in Suspend mode.

2.Turn the computer upside-down. Remove the battery from the system. If you are not familiar with this procedure, please refer to your computer’s “Owner’s Manual.”

3.Facing the front of the computer, locate the memory expansion cover on the right- side of the bottom panel. Also locate the three holding screws on the left-side of this cover. Remove only these three screws with a small Phillips-head screwdriver. Then remove the cover by lifting it up.

4.Locate the single memory expansion slot in the open compartment. Also locate the off-center key on the slot. There will be a standard memory module occupying the expansion slot.

5.In order to upgrade your system past 32MB of memory, its standard memory module will need to be removed. To remove a memory module, locate the retaining clips on both sides of the memory module. Gently pull both clips away from the module and then lift the module out of its expansion slot.

6.To install a memory module, insert the module into an expansion slot at an angle and then push it down until it clicks into place. To be certain that the module is installed correctly, ensure that the off-center notch on the module is aligned with the off-center key of the expansion slot. The module can only be installed one way due to the position of the notch.

7.Replace the memory expansion cover back to its original position and be sure to secure its three holding screws.

8.Insert the battery back into its compartment and turn the system right- side up.

9.Replace the AC power supply and any other cables you may have dis- connected.

10.Open the display screen and turn the system on. The computer will automatically reconfigure itself to recognize the additional memory. The new memory can be verified during the POST routine at start-up and at the SETUP utility.

The installation is now complete.
