Lenovo 7387 Hardware Maintenance Manual page 8

Lenovo plans to transition to RoHS compliance well before the implementation date and expects its
suppliers to be ready to support Lenovo's requirements and schedule. Products sold in 2005, will contain
some RoHS compliant FRUs. The following statement pertains to these products and any product Lenovo
produces containing RoHS compliant parts.
RoHS compliant Lenovo parts have unique FRU part numbers. Before or after June, 2006, failed RoHS
compliant parts must always be replaced using RoHS compliant FRUs, so only the FRUs identified as
compliant in the system HMM or direct substitutions for those FRUs can be used.
Products marketed before June 2006

Note: A direct substitution is a part with a different FRU part number that is automatically shipped by the
distribution center at the time of order.
