PowerBook G4 (DVI) Memory Card Replacement Instructions Follow the instructions in this sheet carefully. Failure to follow these instructions could damage your equipment and void its warranty. Note: Written and video instructions covering customer-installable parts are available at http://www.info.apple.com/installparts/. Warning: During this procedure, keep small parts away from children. Tools Required The only tool required for this procedure is a jeweler’s flat-blade screwdriver (if keyboard is locked). Opening the Computer Warning: Always shut down your computer before opening it to avoid damaging its internal components or causing injury. After you shut down the computer, the internal components can be very hot. Let the computer cool down before continuing. 1. Place your computer on a clean, flat surface. 2. Shut down your computer and wait thirty minutes before continuing. 3. Disconnect the power cord and any other cables connected to the computer. 4. Close the computer and turn it over. 5. Slide the battery latch (Figure 1A) to the right to remove the battery (Figure 1B). Removing the battery will prevent you from accidentally turning on the computer. Warning: Removing the battery before shutting down your computer may result in data loss. Figure 1 A B 6. Turn over the computer. 7. Raise the display so you can access the keyboard. 8. Make sure the keyboard locking screw, located in the small plastic tab to the left of the Num Lock key (Figure 2), is not in the locked position.

Touch the computer’s inside framework (a dull gray conductive composite material) to discharge any static electricity, as shown (Figure 5).

To avoid static electricity building back up in your body, do not walk around the room until you have completed your installation and closed the computer.
