Getting Started
Adding memory (optional)
Do not try to remove a memory module with the computer turned on.
You can damage the computer and the memory module.
Do not remove the memory module while the computer is in Sleep or
Hibernation mode. The computer could hang up the next time you
turn it on and data in memory will be lost. In either of the above
cases, the Sleep configuration will not be saved.
2 Pull the latches away from the memory module.
The memory module pops up slightly.
If your system has the memory modules stacked on top of one
another, you must remove the top module first before
removing/installing the bottom module.
3 Gently lift the memory module to a 30-degree angle and slide it
out of the slot.

4 Replace the memory module slot cover and secure it using the

5 Re-insert the battery. For more information on inserting the
battery, see “Inserting a charged battery” on page 95.
6 Turn the computer right side up. Make sure to remove the soft
cloth from the work surface before restarting the computer.
