PC Cards/ExpressCards™

Your LifeBook notebook supports Type I and Type II PC

Cards and ExpressCards

, which can perform a variety

of functions depending on which type of card you insert.

You can insert one or two cards at a time, depending on

its type. PC Cards should be inserted in the bottom slot,

and ExpressCards in the top slot.

Some available PC/ExpressCards:

■

Local area network (LAN) cards (Type II)

■

IDE solid-state disk cards (Type II)

■

SCSI cards (Type II)

■

Other PC Cards that conform to PCMCIA 2.1 or

CardBus standards

For further information, refer to the instructions

supplied with your card(s).

INSERTING PC CARDS

PC Cards are inserted in the PC Card slot (the lower of

the two slots). To insert a PC Card, follow these steps:

1. See your PC Card manual for instructions on the

insertion of your card. Some cards may require that

your notebook is off while inserting them.

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

If there is, see Removing PC Cards.

3. If the eject button is extended, press it until it clicks.

4. Insert the card into the slot with the label facing up.

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

the connector.

REMOVING PC CARDS

See your PC Card manual for specific instructions on

removing your card. Some cards may require your note-

book to be in Suspend Mode or Off during removal.

2. Unlock the card from the slot by pressing the eject

button associated with the slot in which the card is

located. When pressed, the button will pop out.

3. Firmly press the button again until it is flush with

the notebook. This will eject the card slightly out of

the slot allowing you to remove the card.

■

Inserting or removing a PC Card during

your LifeBook notebook’s shutdown or

bootup process may damage the card

and/or your LifeBook 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

damage the card, your LifeBook note-

book, or both.

You may be required to log on as an

Administrator or member of the Adminis-

trator’s Group to complete this procedure.

If the computer is connected to a network,

network policy settings may also prevent

you from completing this procedure.

■

Windows has a shutdown procedure for

PC Cards that must be followed before

removing a card. (Review your operating

system manual for the correct proce-

dure.) It is good practice to remove

devices using the Unplug or Eject Hard-

ware icon in the system tray.

■

If the dialog box states that the device

cannot be removed, you must save all of

your open files, close any open applica-

tions and shut down your notebook.

If the PC Card has an external connector

and cable, do not pull the cable when

removing the card.
