Some IBM Personal Computer models are equipped from the factory with a CD-
ROM or DVD-ROM drive. CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives are also sold separately as
options. The CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive is a laser product. The CD-ROM/DVD-ROM
drive is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of the Department of
Health and Human Services 21 Code of Federal Regulations (DHHS 21 CFR)
Subchapter J for Class 1 laser products. Elsewhere, the drive is certified to conform
to the requirements of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 825 and
CENELEC EN 60 825 for Class 1 laser products.
When a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive is installed, note the following:
Removing the covers of the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive could result in exposure to
hazardous laser radiation. There are no serviceable parts inside the CD-ROM/DVD-
ROM drive covers.
Do not remove the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive covers.
Some CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives contain an embedded Class 3A or Class 3B laser
diode. Note the following:

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein might
result in hazardous radiation exposure.
