The following figure shows the Cisco ASR 1000 Series RP DIMM module alignment.

Hold the DIMM with two hands at its edge and insert the
card.
Note
Step 7
Make certain that both latches on the DIMM connector are open.
Step 8
Gently insert the new DIMM, taking care not to damage the pins on the edge of the DIMM.Using two hands, place the
index fingers on the edge of the DIMM and place the thumbs on the socket, being careful not to touch the socket pins.
Press on the back of the DIMM towards the socket by squeezing the index fingers and the thumbs together, being careful
to only apply force onto the DIMM parallel with the plane of the DIMM.
Step 9
To allow the DIMM to slide into the socket smoothly with minimum force, one can alternate applying force back and
forth between the left hand and the right hand, allowing one side to engage prior to the other. Carefully and firmly press
the DIMM into the connector until the spring latches lock the DIMM in place. See Figure 14-12.
Strong insertion force introduces excessive mechanical stress on the DIMM. To prevent any stress on the
soldering joints, there should be
no
up, down, or wiggling motion to be done on the DIMM during the insertion.
Forcing the DIMM into the socket can damage the DIMM. Check that the notches on the DIMM are properly
aligned with the ones on the connector before fully inserting the DIMM.
