Safety Information

 

The

optical drive in

this system unit is a laser product. The optical drive has a lab

that

identifies its

classification. The label, located on the drive, is shown below.

CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT

LASER KLASSE 1

LUOKAN 1 LASERLAITE

APPAREIL A LASER DE CLASSE 1

IEC 825:1984 CENELEC EN 60 825:1991

The optical drive in this system unit 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 (1st edition 1984) and CENELEC EN 60

825:1991 for Class 1 laser products.

CAUTION:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A class

3

laser

is

contained

in

the device. Do not attempt to

operate

the

drive

 

while

it

is disassembled.

Do

not

attempt

to

open the

covers of

the

drive

as

it

 

is

not

serviceable

and

is

to

be

replaced

as

a

unit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Class 1 laser products are not considered to

be hazardous. The optical drive

contains

internally

a

Class

3B gallium-arsenide laser

that

is

nominally 0.14

milliwatts

at 830 nanometers. The design incorporates a combination of enclosures,

 

electronics,

and

redundant interlocks

such

that

there

is

no

exposure to

laser radiation

above a Class 1 level during normal operation, user maintenance, or servicing conditions.
