Notes

Use the removable disk icon for the memory 
card you are using.

It may take a while for the removable disk 
icons to appear.

If the removable disk icons do not appear, 
follow the steps under “Disconnecting the 
Reader/Writer From the Computer” in the 
Operating Instructions (this manual) to 
disconnect the reader/writer, and then wait 
at least 5 seconds before reconnecting it.
If the [Safely Remove Hardware] icon 
mentioned in step 1 of “Disconnecting the 
Reader/Writer From the Computer” is not 
displayed, skip the rest of the procedure and 
immediately disconnect the reader/writer.

Depending on your operating system and 
the type of memory card you are using, the 
reader/writer drives may be recognized as 
“Local Disks” instead of “Removable 
Disks,” but this will not affect their 
operation.
