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.
To remove an ExpressCard, follow these steps:
1 Unlock the card from the slot by pressing the eject button associated with the slot in which the card is located.
When pressed, the button will pop out.
2 Firmly press the button again until it is flush with the notebook. This will eject the card slightly out of the slot
allowing you to remove the card.
Smart Card Reader
A dedicated Smart Card Reader is provided on your notebook. Smart Cards are the same size and shape as credit cards,
but they contain an integrated microprocessor chip. The chip can hold a variety of information, and provides you with
many possible options, such as allowing you to make secure purchases, pay for phone calls, store security
information, and provide personal identification and information.
In order to use the Smart Card Reader, you must purchase optional Smart Card third-party software. The Smart Card
slot is located on the left side of the system (See figure 24 on page 74 for location)

• IT IS GOOD PRACTICE TO REMOVE DEVICES USING THE SAFELY REMOVE HARDWARE ICON IN THE SYSTEM TRAY.
• IF THE DIALOG BOX STATES THAT THE DEVICE CANNOT BE REMOVED, YOU MUST SAVE ALL OF YOUR OPEN FILES, CLOSE ANY OPEN APPLICATIONS
AND SHUT DOWN YOUR NOTEBOOK.
