Environmental Requirements

Flame Retardants

Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to

prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame

retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically

related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and

the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and

mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and

researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur. The elevant TCO'99 demand requires that

plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine

or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.

Cadmium

Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays.

Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that

batteries, the color-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain

any cadmium.

Mercury

Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in high

doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that

mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit.

CFCs (freons)

The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and

assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down

ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet

light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.

Lead**

Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and

in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no

replacement has yet been developed.

* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms

** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.

FCC Statement Warning

is equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15

of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed

and used in accordance with the instruction, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

.Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturers may void the user's authority to operate

this equipment.
