| Uninterruptible power supply option
| This product contains a sealed lead acid battery. The battery must be recycled or
| disposed of properly.
| In the United States, IBM has established a collection process for reuse, recycling,
| or proper disposal of used IBM sealed acid batteries. For information about proper
| disposal of these batteries, please contact IBM at 1–800–426–4333. Please have
| the IBM part number listed on the battery available prior to your call.
| For information disposal of sealed acid batteries outside the United States, go to
| the following URL or contact your local waste disposal facility.
| http://www.ibm.com/ibm/environment/products/batteryrecycle.shtml
End of life disposal
This unit must be recycled or discarded according to applicable local and national
regulations. IBM encourages owners of information technology (IT) equipment to
responsibly recycle their equipment when it is no longer needed. IBM offers a
variety of product return programs and services in several countries to assist
equipment owners in recycling their IT products. Information on IBM product
recycling offerings can be found on IBM’s Internet site at
http://www.ibm.com/ibm/environment/products/prp.shtml.
Notice: This mark applies only to countries within the European Union (EU) and
Norway.
Appliances are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC
concerning waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The Directive
determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as
applicable throughout the European Union. This label is applied to various products
to indicate that the product is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end
of life per this Directive.
viii SurePOS Installation and Service 11-9-2005
In accordance with the European WEEE Directive, electrical and electronic
equipment (EEE) is to be collected separately and to be reused, recycled, or
recovered at end of life. Users of EEE with the WEEE marking per Annex IV of the
WEEE Directive, as shown above, must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted
municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to customers for the
return, recycling, and recovery of WEEE. Customer participation is important to
minimize any potential effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to
the potential presence of hazardous substances in EEE. For proper collection and
treatment, contact your local IBM representative.
Disposal of IT products should be in accordance with local ordinances and
regulations.
