Inserting a memory card

1. Align the card so that the connector points towards the port, with the connectors facing down.

3. Push the card until it clicks into place. A few millimetres of the card will extend from beyond the slot.

If the card contains some files, the Windows Auto Play window may appear (this depends on the contents of the card) and ask you if you wish to use a program to access the contents of the card. Select an option here if it is appropriate, otherwise select Cancel . If the card contains no files, or unknown files, a window will open showing the contents of the card.
