Adding a Mini-PCI Type Wireless LAN Card (Optional Device)
Your computer comes with a unique Mini PCI Card socket, which is located next to
the DRAM socket and underneath the WLAN Module Cover. The socket allows the
computer to add unique features such as wireless LAN (IEEE802.11x). Ask your dealer
about the availability of the mini PCI card.
Warning: Installing a mini PCI card is a delicate process. Please observe the following
instructions carefully or have a qualified technician install it for you. Damages due to
mishandling of this procedure are NOT covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Warning: Installing the mini PCI card while your computer is in Suspend or Power-
Saving Mode may cause permanent damage to the hardware. Make sure you turn off
the power and unplug the AC cord before proceeding with a memory upgrade.
