PRECAUTIONS TO TAKE WHEN INSTALLING
ACCESSORIES
•
Disconnect the power cord
Never remove the control board cover while the power is turned on.
To avoid the possibility of an electrical shock, always disconnect the
power cord when installing or removing ANY internal or external
accessories.
•
Discharge static electricity
The control board and internal accessories (network interface card or
memory module) are sensitive to static electricity. Before installing or
removing any internal accessories, discharge static electricity from your
body by touching something metal, such as the metal back plate on any
device plugged into a grounded power source. If you walk around before
finishing the installation, repeat this procedure to discharge any static
electricity again.
INSTALLING A MEMORY DIMM
Your machine has a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slot. Use this
DIMM slot to install additional memory.
Your machine has 256 MB of memory which can be expanded to 512 MB.
The order information is provided for optional memory DIMM. (See "Memory
module" on page 107.)
Installing a memory module
1.
Turn the machine off and unplug all cables from the machine.
2.
Open the control board cover by grasping it and slide toward you.
3.
Take out a new memory DIMM from the plastic bag.
4.
Holding the memory module by the edges, align the memory module on
the slot at about a 30-degree tilt. Make sure that the notches of the
module and the grooves on the slot fit each other.

carefully try the previous procedure again.
