Caring for PC Cards
PC Cards are durable; however, you must treat
them with care. The documentation supplied
with your PC Card will provide specific infor-
mation; however, you should pay attention to
the following points:
To keep out dust and dirt, store PC Cards in
their protective sleeves when they are not
installed in your notebook.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight
or excessive heat.
Keep the cards dry.
Do not flex or bend the cards, and do not
place heavy objects on top of them.
Do not force cards into the slot.
Avoid dropping cards, or subjecting them
to excessive vibration.
Installing PC Cards in Your Notebook
PC cards are installed in the PC Card slot in
the right side panel of your notebook. Some PC
Cards will not work when all possible devices
are enabled. If a PC Card is not recognized, you
U s e r I n s t a l l a b l e F e a t u r e s
will need to use the Control Panel, System and
then Device Manager and choose a system to
disable some device so that the resources can be
used by the PC Card.
C A U T I O N
Do not insert a PC Card into a slot if there
is water or any other substance on the
card. If you do, you may permanently
damage the card, your notebook, or both.
To install a PC Card:
1. See your PC Card manual for instructions on
installation of that specific card.
2. Make sure that there is not already a PC Card
in the slot. If there is, eject it, as described in
Removing PC Cards.
