1-10 Technical Information
PC Card Slots
The PC card slot compartment houses two Type II devices, or one Type III device. For
Type III cards, insert the PC card into the lower slot. Insert the card with the pin sockets
facing towards the drive and the label facing up. To remove the PC card, push on the eject
button to release the pin connections and slowly pull out the card.
The NEC Versa also comes with DOS/Windows PC card drivers for supporting various PC
cards like modem and network cards.
Battery Compartment
The battery compartment houses the rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack. The
battery pack instantly charges whenever you connect the AC adapter to the notebook. It is
very important to always have the battery installed in the notebook to insure that it is con-
tinuously charged. If the battery pack is uninstalled for a long period of time, the battery
cells are drained, causing battery pack to deteriorate.
