Inserting or removing a Compact Flash
Card during your LifeBook notebook’s
shutdown or bootup process may dam-
age the card and/or your notebook.
■
Do not insert a Compact Flash Card into
a slot if there is water or any other sub-
stance on the card as you may perma-
nently damage the card, your LifeBook
notebook, or both.
Windows has a shutdown procedure for
Compact Flash Cards that must be fol-
lowed before removing a card. (Please
review your operating system manual for
the correct procedure). It is good practice
to remove devices using the Safely
Remove Hardware icon in the system tray.
