Removing a PC Card

1
Open the cover by sliding the latch (C) to the right.
2
Simply slide the PC Card right-side-up until it snaps into place.
Refer to the operating instructions of each card on how to insert the card.
CAUTION
When using PC Cards to connect peripheral devices (SCSI, IEEE 1394, etc.), install
the devices following the procedure below (one example).
A Connect the peripheral device to the card.
B Turn the device on.
C Slide the card in until it snaps into place.
When inserting a card, do not force the card in if difficulty is encountered. Depending
on the shape of the card, a segment may remain protruding from the slot after
insertion. Do not try to force the card all the way in. You may damage the slot,
making it impossible to remove the card.
CAUTION
Do not remove a PC Card while your computer is in the standby or hibernation mode.
When two PC Cards are inserted, perform the following procedure (from Step
3
Step for each of the two cards.)
Note that the operation of removing the PC Card may not be complete, depending on
the status of the PC Card or device connected to the PC Card, such as when a SCSI
card is used to connect an external hard disk to the computer. In such cases, turn off
the power from [start] menu, then remove the card.
