Optional Devices Additional memory module You can replace with an additional memory in order to increase the amount of system memory that is available. This section describes how to install and remove optional memory modules. ■ You should place a mat beneath the computer in order to prevent the computer's lid from becoming scratched or damaged when you are installing/replacing the memory module. In this instance you should avoid mats that are made of materials that hold or generate static electricity. ■ When installing or removing a memory module, you must ensure that you do not touch any other internal areas of the computer. ■ Use only memory modules approved by TOSHIBA. ■ Do not try to install or remove a memory module under the following conditions. a. The computer is turned on. b. The computer was shut down in either Sleep or Hibernation Mode. c. Wake-up on LAN is enabled. d. The wireless communication is enabled. e. USB Sleep and Charge function is enabled. ■ Be careful not to let screws or other foreign matter fall into the computer. It could cause malfunction or electric shock. ■ Additional memory modules are precision electronic components that may be fatally damaged by static electricity. Since the human body can carry static electricity, it is important that you discharge yourself before touching or installing any additional memory modules. To discharge your body's static electricity, simply touch any metal close to you with bare hands. ■ Turn off the power and disconnect the AC adaptor when installing or replacing a memory module. ■ If you use the computer for an extended period of time, the memory modules and the circuits located close to the memory modules will become hot. Allow then to cool to room temperature before you replace them. Installing a memory module To install a memory module: 1. Shut down the computer - make sure the Power indicator is off (refer to the Turning off the power section in Chapter 3, Getting Started if required). 2. Remove the AC adaptor and all cables and peripherals connected to the computer. User's Manual 8-4
