PRODUCTS CONFORMING TO RoHS DIRECTIVE
PRODUCTS CONFORMING TO RoHS DIRECTIVE
Following products described in this manual are products conforming to RoHS directive.
• BS-98 Base Station
Products conforming to RoHS directive include products that do not contain speci fi ed hazardous substances such as lead, mercury,
cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) in electrical and
electronic equipment excluding following exemption applications based on the EU directive (Directive2002/95/EC).
* About RoHS Directive
The RoHS directive stands for "the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment"
and is one of environmental directives in Europe. This directive restricts the use of speci
fi ed hazardous substances in electrical and
electronic equipment.
● Applications exempted from RoHS directive compliance
Followings applications are permitted as exemptions from RoHS directive compliance.
