This symbol indicates the product contains hazardous materials in excess of the limits estab-
lished by the Chinese standard SJ/T11363-2006 Requirements for Concentration Limits for Cer-
tain Hazardous Substances in Electronic Information Products. The number in the symbol is the
Environment-friendly Use Period (EFUP), which indicates the period during which the toxic or
hazardous substances or elements contained in electronic information products will not leak or
mutate under normal operating conditions so that the use of such electronic information products
will not result in any severe environmental pollution, any bodily injury or damage to any assets.
The unit of the period is “Year”.
In order to maintain the declared EFUP, the product shall be operated normally according to the
instructions and environmental conditions as defined in the product manual, and periodic mainte-
nance schedules specified in Product Maintenance Procedures shall be followed strictly.
Consumables or certain parts may have their own label with an EFUP value less than the prod-
uct. Periodic replacement of those consumables or parts to maintain the declared EFUP shall be
done in accordance with the Product Maintenance Procedures.
This product must not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste, and must be collected sepa-
