The following figure shows the location of the NVRAM DIMM slot on the NVRAM III adapter.

To remove the NVRAM III DIMM, complete the following steps.

Note
This procedure assumes that you have already removed the NVRAM III adapter, as described in Removing an existing expansion adapter.

Step	Action
1	Push apart the latches on both sides of the DIMM with your index fingers.
2	Place the DIMM in an antistatic bag.

To install the NVRAM III DIMM, complete the following steps.

Step	Action
1	Hold the DIMM at the top corners to avoid damaging the components or the edge connector.
2	Align the DIMM over the slot and then tilt the top edge of the DIMM at a slight angle away from the top edge of the NVRAM adapter.
3	Insert the DIMM into the slot. The DIMM should slide into the slot easily if you wiggle the DIMM into position. If not, realign the DIMM with the slot and try again.
4	Push the DIMM into the slot until the mounting tabs close over the DIMM to lock it in place. Caution Visually inspect the DIMM to verify that it is evenly aligned and fully inserted into the slot; otherwise, the DIMM could bend or break when pushed to the locked position.
5	Return to Installing an expansion adapter to complete the installation.
