Installing Memory Stick and SD Cards
Memory Stick and SD Cards are installed in the Memory Stick/SD Card slot. To install a card, follow these steps:
INSTALLING OR REMOVING A MEMORY STICK OR SD CARD DURING YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK’S SHUTDOWN OR BOOTUP PROCESS MAY DAMAGE THE CARD AND/OR YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK.
DO NOT INSERT A CARD INTO A SLOT IF THERE IS WATER OR ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE ON THE CARD AS YOU MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE CARD, YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK, OR BOTH.
1See your specific card manual for instructions on the installation of your card. Some cards may require that your notebook is off while installing them.
2Make sure there is no card currently in the slot. If there is, see Removing a Memory Stick/SD Card.
3Insert your card into the slot with the product label facing up.
4Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in the connector.
