WARNING: The memory modules are hot to touch for some time after the system has been
powered down. Allow the memory modules to cool before handling them. Handle the memory
modules by the card edges and avoid touching the components or metallic contacts on the
memory module.
CAUTION: To ensure proper system cooling, memory module blanks must be installed in any
memory socket that is not occupied. Remove memory module blanks only if you intend to install
memory modules in those sockets.
Steps
1. Locate the appropriate memory module socket.
2. To release the memory module from the socket, simultaneously press the ejectors on both ends of
the memory module socket.
CAUTION: Handle each memory module only by the card edges, ensuring not to touch the
middle of the memory module or metallic contacts.
3. Lift the memory module away from the chassis.
