Remove the SO-DIMM memory module as follows.
1. Close all applications, shut down the operating system, turn off system power, and unplug
the AC power adapter and power cord from the power source and the back of the system.

Turn off and disconnect all peripherals.
To prevent electric shock, turn off system power and unplug the
system AC power adapter before removing the back cover. Power is removed only when the AC
power adapter is unplugged from its power source.
3. Carefully position the system on a clean, flat, soft surface, with the LCD panel facing down.
To prevent damage to your LCD panel screen, be sure your work
surface is clean, flat, smooth and free of any objects before positioning the system face down.
4. Remove the back cover (see “Rear Cover Removal” earlier in this chapter).
To prevent personal injury, follow these precautions before you
proceed:
To prevent injury by electric shock, make sure the AC power adapter is unplugged from its
