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 but 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 slots in the left 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 may need to open the Control panel, the System folder, and then the Device Manager, and choose a device to disable so that the resources can be used by the PC Card.
