CAUTION:

Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the

safety instructions in the

Product Information Guide.

You can increase your computer memory by installing memory modules on

the system board. See "Specifications" in your Owner’s Manual for

information on the memory supported by your computer. Install only memory

modules that are intended for your computer.

NOTE:

Memory modules purchased from Dell are covered under your computer

warranty.

Your computer has two user-accessible SODIMM sockets that can be

accessed from the bottom of the computer.

NOTICE:

If you need to install memory modules in two connectors, install a

memory module in the connector labeled “DIMM1” before you install a module in

the connector labeled “DIMM2.”

Removing Memory Module

NOTICE:

To avoid electrostatic discharge, ground yourself by using a wrist

grounding strap or by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface (such as a

connector on the back of the computer).

NOTICE:

If a memory module is installed in the DIMM 2 connector, remove it prior

to removing the memory module from the DIMM 1 connector. Failure to do so could

result in damaging both memory modules.

1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 9.
2 Ground yourself by touching one of the metal connectors on the back of

the computer.

NOTE:

If you leave the area, ground yourself again when you return to

the computer.

3 Turn the computer over, loosen the captive screws on the memory module

cover, and then remove the cover.
