Removing a memory module

If you need to remove a memory module:
1 Complete steps 1–8 in "Installing a memory module" on
page 30 to shut down the computer and open the memory
module slot cover.
For this model, Slot A is the bottom slot. Slot B is the top slot. If only
one memory module is to be installed, it must be installed in Slot A.
Always make sure your computer and AC adaptor have adequate
ventilation and are protected from overheating when the power is turned
on or when an AC adaptor is connected to a power outlet (even if your
computer is in Sleep mode). In this condition, observe the following:
❖
Never cover your computer or AC adaptor with any object.
❖
Never place your computer or AC adaptor near a heat source,
such as an electric blanket or heater.
❖
Never cover or block the air vents including those located at the
base of the computer.
❖
Always operate your computer on a hard flat surface. Using your
computer on a carpet or other soft material can block the vents
located at the base of the computer.
Overheating your computer or AC adaptor could cause system
failure, computer or AC adaptor damage or a fire, possibly resulting
in serious injury.
TECHNICAL NOTE: You must have at least one memory module
installed for the computer to work.
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.
