How do you access the lower RAM slot in a PowerBook G3?

I just bought a 256MB low profile RAM module to go in my Wallstreet. It had a 32MB in the lower slot and a high profile 128MB in the upper slot (apparently, the lower slot only takes low profile while the upper takes either low or high profile ones). I decided to replace the 32MB in the lower slot with the 256MB. But I can't find out how to install any RAM in the lower slot. I downloaded the service manual, but it doesn't have anything about it. In the meantime, it is working fine with the 256MB in the upper slot and the 32MB in the lower slot, for a total of 288MB, but having 384MB would probably help.

    Thanks a lot! That worked fine. I already have the new RAM installed.
