Memory Upgrade Module
Your Fujitsu LIFEBOOK notebook comes with a minimum of 2 GB of high speed Double Data Rate
Synchronous Dynamic RAM (DDR3-1333 SDRAM) factory installed. To increase your notebook’s memory
capacity, you may install an additional memory upgrade module. The memory upgrade must be a dual-in-
line (DIMM) SDRAM module. To ensure 100% compatibility, purchase the SDRAM module only from
the Fujitsu web store at www.shopfujitsu.com
Installing Memory Upgrade Modules

Turn off power to your notebook, remove any power adapter (AC or auto/airline). Remove the battery.
2
Make sure that all the connector covers are closed.
3
Turn the notebook bottom side up, remove the screw from the memory upgrade module compartment, and
remove the cover.

4
Remove the new memory upgrade module from the static guarded sleeve.
5
Align the memory upgrade module with the part side up. Align the connector edge of the memory upgrade
module with the connector slot in the compartment.
