Memory Upgrade
Module
Your Fujitsu LifeBook P1600 Series notebook comes with
a minimum of 512 MB of high speed Double Data Rate
Synchronous Dynamic RAM 2 (DDR2 SDRAM), 533
MHz factory installed. To increase your system’s memory
capacity, you may install a 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
.

Figure 4-3. Removing a Memory Module
The system contains components that can
be severely damaged by electrostatic
discharge (ESD). To minimize risk to the
components, observe the following
precautions:
■ Be sure to power down your system
before adding or removing system
components. Even if the system is in
hibernate or standby states, data could
be lost or memory could be damaged if
power is still available to the system.
■ When installing or removing a memory
module, hold it by the edge so as not to
touch any contacts or chips. Be careful
not to touch any internal computer
terminals or components; the oil from
your fingers could cause a short to the
components.
Electrical equipment may be hazardous if
misused. Operations of this product or
similar products, must always be supervised
by an adult. Do not allow children access to
the interior of any electrical products and
do not permit them to handle any cables.
Do not remove any screws from the
memory upgrade module compartment
except those specifically shown in the
directions for installing and removing the
module.
