Memory Upgrade
Module
Your LifeBook notebook comes with 128MB or 256MB of
memory factory installed. To increase your LifeBook
notebook's memory capacity, you may install an addi-
tional memory upgrade module. You can also replace the
original memory module with a higher capacity module.
The memory upgrade must be a PC2100 DDR266 SO-
DIMM module, but it can be any capacity up to 1024MB
(total). To ensure 100% compatibility, we recommend
that you only purchase additional memory from the
Fujitsu on-line accessory store at:
www.fujitsupc.com/accessories.

Do not remove any screws from the memory upgrade
module compartment, except the ones specifically
shown in the directions for installing and removing
the memory upgrade module.

by electro-static discharge (ESD). Be sure you are
properly grounded when handling and installing the
module.
6. Remove the memory upgrade module from the
static guarded sleeve.

upgrade module with the connector slot in the
compartment. The connector will be pointing
toward the rear of the LifeBook notebook.
8. Insert the memory upgrade module at a 45° angle.
Press the connector edge of the module firmly down
and into the connector until it lodges under the

to increase system memory capacity.
