smart-card reader on your computer only supports the smart card of the following specifications:
Attention: Smart cards with slits are not supported. Do not insert such a smart card into the smart-card
reader of your computer. Otherwise the reader might get damaged.
Installing a media card or a smart card
Attention: Before you start installing a card, touch a metal table or a grounded metal object. This action
reduces any static electricity from your body. Static electricity could damage the card.
To install the card:

on page 1.
2. Ensure that the card is correctly oriented:
• For the media card: The metal contacts are facing down and pointing toward the card slot.
• For the smart card: The metal contacts are facing upward and pointing toward the card slot.
3. Press the card firmly into the card slot.
Removing a media card or a smart card

• Before removing a card, stop the card first. Otherwise, data on the card might get corrupted or lost.
• When transferring data to or from a media card or a smart card, do not put your computer to sleep or
hibernation mode before the data transfer is completed; otherwise, your data might get damaged.
• Do not remove a card when the computer is in sleep mode or hibernation mode. Otherwise, the system
might not respond when you try to resume operation.
To remove a card:
1. Click the triangular icon in the Windows notification area to show hidden icons. Then, right-click the
