of the computer, has been opened to expose the computers'
docking connector.
Step 2: Make sure the power switch on the dock is in the "OFF"
position. Panasonic does not recomend "Hot-Docking" the

Make sure no loose or foreign objects are on the surface of the
dock, the connector cover is mounted in the storage location on
the side of the dock, and the slide plate is in the forward
location.
Step 3: Place the front edge of the computer into the dock. The
