To insert a PC card
Insert the PC card into the PC card slot, front label facing up. Gently push the card into the slot until the card is fixed into the connector. The Release button will then come out.
Insert in the direction of the arrow
Do not force a card into the slot. It may damage the connector pins. If you have difficulty inserting a card, check that you are inserting the card with the correct orientation. See the manual supplied with your PC card
for more information on use.
For some PC cards, if you alternate between normal power operation and the system suspend or system hibernation power management modes while the card is inserted, you may find that a device connected to your system is not recognized. Reboot your system to correct the problem.
While the card is inserted, your computer may not enter the System Hibernation power management mode. It may enter the System Suspend mode. It is recommended to remove the card when your computer enters the System Hibernation mode by pressing Fn + F12 keys or by using the PowerPanel utility, and when it is set to enter the System Hibernation mode automatically while using a battery as the source of power.
