Precautions for Use 1-17

DISPOSAL OF EQUIPMENT AND CONSUMABLES

When you dispose of the main unit, hard disk drive, floppy disks, CD-ROMs, optional boards, etc., you need to observe your local disposal rules. For details, ask your municipal office.

IMPORTANT: For disposal (or replacement) of batteries on the motherboard, consult with your sales agent.

If data remains on the hard disk, backup data cartridges, floppy disks, or other writable media (such as CD-R and CD-RW), it could be restored and reused by outsiders. The customer is responsible for wiping out such data before disposal. You need to exercise sufficient care to protect privacy and confidential information.

Some of the system components have limited lifetime (e.g., cooling fans, built-in batteries, built-in CD-ROM drive, floppy disk drive and mouse). For stable operation, it is recommended to replace them regularly. For lifetime of individual components and replacing procedures, ask your sales agent.
