11. Insert a new memory module:

a. Align the notched edge 1 of the memory module with the

tab in the memory module slot.

module by the edges only. Do not touch the components on the

memory module.

b. With the memory module at a 45-degree angle from the

surface of the memory module compartment, press the

module 2 into the memory module slot until it is seated.

c. Gently press the memory module 3 down, applying

pressure to both the left and right edges of the memory

module, until the retention clips snap into place.

To prevent damage to the memory module, be sure that you do

not bend the memory module.
