Exploring Your Computer’s Features

Using the Bridge Media Adapter Slot

When inserting memory media, do not touch the metal contacts. You
could expose the storage area to static electricity, which can destroy
data.

Removing memory media

Prepare the media for removal by clicking the Safely Remove
Hardware
icon in the System tray and then selecting the card
or device you want to remove.

If the system is unable to prepare the media for safe removal, a
message will tell you to try again later. If the media can be
removed now, the system displays Safe to Remove Hardware.

Gently press the card inward to release it.

The card pops out slightly.

(Sample Illustration) Removing memory media

Do not remove memory media while data is being written or read.
Even when the Windows

message “copying...” disappears, writing

to the media might still be in progress and your data could be
destroyed. Wait for the indicator light to go out.
