Removing SIMMs
If you wish to install an upgrade in a bank which is already occupied you
must first remove the existing SIMMs. For each SIMM in the bank:
1.
Lever the metal clips on each side of the socket gently away from
the SIMM using your forefingers.
2.
Place your thumbs on the top edge of the SIMM and move it gently
towards the top edge of the memory card (next to bank 3).

3.
When the SIMM has rotated through 20°, taking care to avoid
touching any of the components on the SIMM, grip the top corners
of the SIMM between thumb and first finger and carefully pull the
module out of the socket.
Inserting SIMMs
Important
Fit only correct Apricot-approved SIMMS into your server.
For each socket in the bank:
1.
The SIMM will only install in one orientation. There is a cutout at
one end of the SIMM next to the connector strip.
2.
Hold the SIMM with the cutout towards the middle of the card and
its metal connector strip nearest the card surface.
3.
Position the SIMM above the socket with the SIMM tilted slightly
towards the top of the card away from the memory card's connector
strip.
