Other PC Cards that conform to PCMCIA 2.1 or

For further information, refer to the instructions

supplied with your PC Card.

INSTALLING PC CARDS

PC Cards are installed in the PC Card slot. To install a

PC Card, follow these easy steps: (Figure 4-6)

1. See your PC Card manual for specific instructions

on the installation of your card. Some PC Cards

may require your notebook to be Off while

installing them.

2. Make sure there is no PC Card currently in the slot.

If there is, see Removing PC Cards.

3. Insert your PC Card into the slot, with the product

label facing up.

4. Push the card into the slot firmly until it is seated in

the opening.

REMOVING PC CARDS

To remove a PC Card, follow these easy steps:

1. See your PC Card manual for specific instructions

on removing your card. Some PC Cards may require

your notebook to be in Standby Mode or Off while

removing them.

2. Push the Eject button until it pops out, and then

push it in to eject the card. This will allow you to

remove the card.

SMART CARD READER

An embedded Smart Card Reader is provided on your

LifeBook notebook. Smart Cards are the same size and

shape as credit cards, but they contain an integrated

microprocessor chip. The chip can hold a variety of

information, and provides the user with many possible

options, such as allowing them to make secure

purchases, pay for phone calls, store security informa-

tion, and provide identification and information.

In order to use the embedded Smart Card Reader, you

must purchase an optional Smart Card holder for instal-

lation into an available Type II PC Card slot.

Installing or removing a PC Card during

your notebook’s shutdown or bootup

process may damage the card and/or

your notebook.

■

Do not insert a PC Card into a slot if

there is water or any other substance on

the card as you may permanently dam-

age the card, your notebook, or both.

Windows has a shutdown procedure for

PC Cards that must be followed before

removing a card. (Review your operating

system manual for the correct procedure)

If the dialog box states that the device

cannot be removed, you must save all of

your open files, close any open

applications and shut down your LifeBook.

If the PC Card has an external connector

and cable, do not pull the cable when

removing the card.
