Important information about replacing
RoHS compliant FRUs
RoHS, The Restriction of Hazardous Substances in
Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive
(2002/95/EC) is a European Union legal requirement
affecting the global electronics industry. RoHS
requirements must be implemented on Lenovo
products placed on the market after June 2006.
Products on the market before June 2006 are not
required to have RoHS compliant parts. So, if the
original FRU parts are non compliant, replacement
parts can also be non compliant. In all cases if the
original FRU parts are RoHS compliant the
replacement part must also be RoHS compliant.
Lenovo plans to transition to RoHS compliance well before
the implementation date and expects its suppliers to be
ready to support Lenovo's requirements and schedule.
Products sold in 2005, will contain some RoHS compliant
FRUs. The following statement pertains to these products
and any product Lenovo produces containing RoHS
compliant FRUs.
RoHS compliant FRUs have unique FRU part numbers.
Before or after the RoHS implementation date, failed RoHS
compliant parts must always be replaced using RoHS
compliant FRUs, so only the FRUs identified as compliant
in the system HMM or direct substitutions for those FRUs
may be used.
