The USB cable tucks into the reader for storage. To connect the reader, gently pull the
connector out and plug it into one of your computer’s USB ports (or a USB hub connect-
ed to your computer). 

Make sure that the cable is firmly connected, but do not force it.

There is no need to turn off your computer before connecting or disconnecting a USB
device.

The Kensington Portable Memory Card Reader is a USB 2.0 device. If you plug the read-
er into an older USB 1.x port or hub, Windows XP will display a warning message:

The Unknown USB Device is a HI-SPEED USB device and will function at reduced
speed when plugged into a non-HI-SPEED port.

Close the message window to continue. The reader will work with a USB 1.x connec-
tion, but it will operate at reduced speed (a maximum of 12 Megabits per second, com-
pared to 480 Megabits per second maximum with USB 2.0).
