STEP 6
To install the new memory, align the notch on the gold part of the module with the notch in
the slot. Tilt the card and push the memory firmly and evenly into the slot. There will be an
audible click when the memory is seated correctly. Do not worry which way the stickers face,
as this will differ.
STEP 7
To reassemble the MacBook, reattach the back panel and replace the screws into their
locations. Replace the battery, making sure the latch is in the open position. Replace the
access door and press the latch into the close position.
