Upgrading your VAIO computer
Upgrading memory
In the future, you may want to upgrade the memory installed on your VAIO by replacing / adding memory
modules. However, we recommend that you do not install them yourself unless you are familiar with
upgrading memory on a computer.
For memory upgrades, use only those modules mentioned in the printed Specifications table.
Be careful when adding memory yourself. Mistakes on installation or removal of the memory module may
cause a malfunction.
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Before touching a memory expansion board,
remember the following:
Handle the memory module gently.
The procedures described in this document assume familiarity with the general terminology associated
with personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and
modifying electronic equipment.
Disconnect the system from its power source and from any telecommunication links, networks, or
modems before you open the system. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or equipment
damage.
Do not open the memory module package until you are ready to install the module. The package
protects the module from ESD.
Use the special bag delivered with the memory module, or wrap the module in aluminium foil to protect
it from electrostatic discharge.
Do not place the memory module in places subject to: Heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration
or shock, strong magnets or speakers that are not magnetically shielded, ambient temperature of more than +35°C or less than +5°C , or high
humidity.
!
Introducing any liquids or any foreign substances or objects into the memory slots, or other internal components of the computer, will result in damage
to the computer and any repairs will be out of warranty.
