CAUTION
HOT
•
Some components around the memory slot are very hot immediately after use.
To avoid burns, do not install or remove memory immediately after turning off the
computer but wait for a while until its internal components cool down.
BREAKAGE
•
When installing or removing memory, hold its edge so as not to touch any terminal
or IC. Also, be careful not to touch internal components or terminals of the computer.
Touching these parts with oily fingers could result in poor electrical contact.
•
Memory is composed of static-sensitive parts, and it is easily broken by static
discharged from a human body. Before touching memory, always touch an
appropriate metal object to discharge static from your body.
•
When installing or removing memory, be sure to turn off your computer. If you install
or remove memory with the computer placed in standby or hibernation mode, data
not saved could be lost or the computer or memory could be broken.
