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. 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.
Note:
RoHS and non-RoHS FRU part numbers with the same fit and function are
identified with unique FRU part numbers.
Lenovo plans to transit to RoHS compliance well before the implementation date
and expects its suppliers to be ready to support Lenovo’s requirements and
schedule in the EU. Products sold in 2005 and 2006 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 with
RoHS compliant ones, so only the FRUs identified as compliant in the system
HMM or direct substitutions for those FRUs may be used.
Note:
A direct substitution is a part with a different FRU part number that is
automatically shipped by the distribution center at the time of the order.
