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 119.)
