YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO LOG ON AS ADMINISTRATOR OR A MEMBER OF THE ADMINISTRATOR'S GROUP TO COMPLETE THIS PROCEDURE. IF YOUR COMPUTER IS CONNECTED TO A NETWORK, NETWORK POLICY SETTINGS MAY ALSO PREVENT YOU FROM COMPLETING THIS PROCEDURE. See your ExpressCard manual for instructions on the installation of your card. Some cards may require that your notebook is off while installing them. To install an ExpressCard, follow these steps: 1 Make sure there is no ExpressCard currently in the slot. If there is, see Removing ExpressCards. 2 If the eject button is extended, press it in until it clicks. 3 Insert your ExpressCard into the slot with the product label facing up. If you are inserting a 34 mm card, be sure to align it with the left side of the slot when inserting it. 4 Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in the connector. Removing ExpressCards See your ExpressCard manual for specific instructions on removing your card. Some cards may require your notebook to be in Sleep Mode or Off during removal. • WINDOWS HAS A SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE FOR EXPRESSCARDS THAT MUST BE FOLLOWED BEFORE REMOVING A CARD. (REVIEW YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM MANUAL FOR THE CORRECT PROCEDURE.)
