Knowing the Parts
The following describes the components on the bottom side of the Notebook PC as shown by the
illustration on the previous page.
Memory Compartment
The memory compartment contains 2 SO-DIMM slots for memory installation. There is no memory
built in, so one memory module must be installed in order for the Notebook PC to function. Memory
installation/upgrades must be done by an authorized retailer or else warranty will be void.
Hard Drive Compartment
The hard drive tray is secured by two screws. When the cover is removed, the Notebook's PC hard disk
drive can be seen. This design allows easy hard disk drive swapping or upgrading. Hard disk installa-
tion/upgrades must be done by an authorized retailer or else warranty will be void.
Reset Button
reset
The reset button is used for shutting down the Notebook PC if <CTRL><ALT><DEL> or turning OFF
the power does not respond. To use this function, momentarily depress the button within the hole with
a pen and the Notebook PC will shut down. Do not use a pencil since the tip may break off in the hole.
Module Drive Bay/Additional Battery Compartment
This battery-sized bay uses an adapter to accept module drives. Drive modules can only be inserted or
removed while the Notebook PC is turned OFF. To use an additional battery pack, remove the adapter
to fit a standard battery pack for this Notebook PC.
Main Battery Compartment
The battery compartment's surface is actually combined with the battery pack in order to reduce thick-
ness. When the battery is released, the compartment cover and battery pack will be seen as a single unit.
The battery pack cannot be further disassembled and must be replaced as a single unit.
Battery Release
L
The battery release is a spring loaded latch that automatically locks the battery pack when inserted.
