Notes ● Be sure to connect the adapter to the computer AFTER installing the device driver. ● Make sure the connector is fully inserted. ● When inserting the connector, make sure it is oriented correctly (refer to the pictures below). Inserting the connector incorrectly may damage the connector and/or the computer's USB port. ● Before connecting the adapter, make sure there is adequate space around the computer's USB port so that the adapter can be connected properly. Plugging in the adapter forcibly may damage the adapter and/or USB port. ● DO NOT apply force to the computer's USB port or the adapter when removing/inserting a card from/into the adapter if it is directly connected to the computer's USB port.

Doing so may destroy the data stored on the card. ● The status lamp does not light if the card is not recognized correctly. When this happens, pull the card out of the adapter, then wipe the contact area with a dry cloth, and insert the card again. If the problem persists, the card may be damaged. 9
