Before you can install the memory module or battery you must remove the
module from the I/O chassis and disassemble the module. You need these
tools to do this:
Phillip’s head screwdriver
flat head screwdriver (for battery)
chip insertion/extraction tool (for memory modules without a carrier)
ATTENTION: To avoid damaging the module with
electrostatic discharge:
Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device or touch a
grounded object to discharge yourself before
handling any equipment. (Note that the wrist
strap is not supplied with the module.)
Do not touch backplane connectors or
connector pins.
If you configure or replace internal components,
do not touch other circuit components inside the module.
When not in use, keep components in a static-shielded bag.
