Laser Compliance Statement for CD-ROM, DVD-ROM,
CD-RW and DVD/CD-RW Combo Drives
The CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, CD-RW and DVD/CD-RW Combo drive
for this computer are laser products. The classification label of the drive
is located on the bottom of the drive. Below is a sample of the
classification label;
vi
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
LASER KLASSE 1
LOUKAN 1 LASERLAITE
APPAREIL A LASER DE CLASSE 1
KLASS 1 LASER APPARAT
The drive is certified in the USA to comply with 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.
In other countries the drive is certified to comply with the requirements
