Chapter 1: Introduction
Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive
PlayBox Technology is fully committed to comply with all applicable laws and
regulations, including the RoHS Directive which restricts the use of certain hazardous
materials in electrical and electronic products.
PlayBox Technology goal is to meet and exceed compliance obligations of the RoHS
Directive on a global basis. RoHS substances will be virtually eliminated (to levels below
legal limits) for all newly marketed PlayBox products subject to the RoHS Directive,
except where it is widely recognized that there is no technically feasible alternative
(unless otherwise exempted under the RoHS directives).
Directive 2002/95/EC—commonly known as the European Union (EU) Restriction on
Hazardous Substances (RoHS)-sets limits on the use of certain substances found in
electrical and electronic equipment. The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount
of hazardous chemicals that may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate the
environment during end-of-life recycling. The Directive takes effect on July 1, 2006, and
it refers to the following hazardous substances:
Ltd.
Ltd.
• Lead (Pb)
• Mercury (Hg)
• Cadmium (Cd)
• Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)
• Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
• Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
In accordance with this EU Directive, all PlayBox Technology products sold in the
European Union will be RoHS-compliant. Spare parts supplied for the repair and upgrade
of equipment sold before July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. PlayBox
Technology equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a
RoHS-compliant symbol, as shown in .

Chapter 1: Introduction
Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) Directive
The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste from Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) deals with the collection, treatment, recovery, and recycling of
electrical and electronic waste products.
Effective August 13, 2005, producers or users will be required to recycle electrical and
electronic equipment at end of its useful life, and must not dispose of the equipment in
landfills or by using other unapproved
methods. (Some EU member state may have different deadlines.)
PlayBox Technology equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked
with a WEEEcompliant symbol, as shown in .

ESD Safety Guidelines
The following measures are generally sufficient to protect against Electric Statics
Discharge (ESD)
6
Caution
Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can
damage electronic
components. To prevent damage to
your system board, it is important to
handle it very carefully.
Use a grounded wrist strap des igned to prevent
static discharge.
6
Keep all components and printed circuit boards
(PCBs) in their anti-static bags until ready for use.
6
Touch a grounded metal object before removing
the board from the anti-static bag.
6
Do not let components or PCBs come into contact
with your clothing, which may retain a charge
even if you are wearing a wrist strap.
6
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its
components, peripheral chips, memory modules
or contacts.
6
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching
their pins.
6
For grounding purposes, make sure your
computer chassis provides excellent conductivity
between the power supply, the case, the
mounting fasteners and the motherboard.
War ning
To avoid personal injury and
property damage, please carefully
follow all the Operation Safety
Guidelines precisely.

Operation Safety Guidelines
Before installing the chassis into a rack:
1.
Caution
For proper cooling, make sure to
install all chassis covers before
turning on the system. If this rule is
not strictly followed, warranty may
become void. Do not open the
casing of a power supply. Power
supplies can only be accessed and
serviced by a qualified technician of
the manufacturer.
Make sure that the rack is securely anchored onto
a unmovable surface or structure before installing
the chassis into the rack.
2.
Unplug the power cord(s) of the rack before
installing the chassis into the rack.
3.
Make sure that the system is adequately
supported. Make sure that all the components are
securely fastened to the chassis to prevent
components from falling off from the chassis.
Chapter 2: Safety Guidelines
4.
Be sure to install an AC Power Disconnect for the
entire rack assembly and this Power Disconnect must
be clearly marked.
5.
The rack assembly shall be properly grounded to
avoid electric shock. The rack assembly must provide
sufficient airflow to the chassis for proper cooling.
Please Note: Chapter 5: contains specific information
