9. Using both DIMM extraction tools (A5201-68005), place the grooved side of each tool on each side of the

target DIMM.

10. Seat the tool tips down to limit, then leverage connector latches outward to unseat the DIMM from the

memory slot.

11. Orient the replacement DIMM connector key over the memory slot.

12. Using the DIMM installer tool (A5201-68003), press the DIMM downward evenly to seat the DIMM into

the memory slot. Repeat for each additional DIMM to be installed.
