Figure 4-5 Final Manual Removal of a SIMM
To install a SIMM, follow these steps:
If you have removed a SIMM because it was defective, install the replacement
SIMM into the same slot from which the defective one was removed. You must
install the SIMMs in unoccupied slots so that the slots are filled by banks.
For example, you have removed the SIMM from slot U0320 from bank 2. You
need to replace the SIMM in slot U0320 from bank 2 so that all slots in bank 2
are filled. There should be SIMMs in slot U0313, U0314, and U0315 to begin
with, so all four slots in bank 2 are filled. Table 4-1 identifies memory banks
and slots.
Caution – SIMMs are made of delicate electronic components that are
!
extremely sensitive to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static from your
clothes or work environment can destroy the modules.
Do not remove the SIMMs from the anti-static container until told to do so.
Handle the modules only by the edges. Do not touch components themselves
or any metal parts. Always wear a grounding strap when handling the
modules.
