Using the memory card reader
Digital cameras and other digital imaging
devices use memory cards to store digital
picture or media files. The built-in memory card
reader on the front panel of your system allows
you to read from and write to different memory
card drives.
To use the memory card:
1. Insert the memory card into the card slot.
• A memory card is keyed so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT force a card into a slot to
avoid damaging the card.
• You can place media in one or more of the card slots and use each media independently. Place
only one memory card in a slot at one time.
2. Select a program from the AutoPlay window to access your files.
• On Windows

Computer
screen.

To prevent data loss, use “Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media” in the Windows® notification
area before removing the memory card.
