General safety guidelines  
Always observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury and property  
damage.  
Service  
Do not attempt to service a product yourself unless instructed to do so by the IBM  
Support Center. Use only an IBM authorized service provider who is approved to  
repair your particular product.  
Note: Some parts can be upgraded or replaced by the customer. These parts are  
referred to as Customer Replaceable Units, or CRUs. IBM expressly identifies CRUs  
as such, and provides documentation with instructions when it is appropriate for  
customers to replace those parts. You must closely follow all instructions when  
performing such replacements. Always make sure that the power is turned off and  
that the product is unplugged from any power source before you attempt the  
replacement. If you have any questions or concerns, contact the IBM Support  
Center.  
Power cords and power adapters  
Use only the power cords and power adapters supplied by the product  
manufacturer.  
Never wrap a power cord around the power adapter or other object. Doing so can  
stress the cord in ways that can cause the cord to fray, crack or crimp. This can  
present a safety hazard.  
Always route power cords so that they will not be walked on, tripped over, or  
pinched by objects.  
Protect the cord and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave your  
cord or power adapter near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors that are cleaned with  
liquid cleansers. Liquids can cause a short circuit, particularly if the cord or power  
adapter has been stressed by misuse. Liquids can also cause gradual corrosion of  
the power cord terminals and/or the connector terminals on the adapter which can  
eventually result in overheating.  
Always connect power cords and signal cables in the correct order and ensure that  
all power cord connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles.  
Do not use any power adapter that shows corrosion at the ac input pins and/or  
shows signs of overheating (such as deformed plastic) at the ac input or anywhere  
on the power adapter.  
Do not use any power cords where the electrical contacts on either end show signs  
of corrosion or overheating or where the power cord appears to have been  
damaged in any way.  
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2004  
vii  
 
Extension cords and related devices  
Ensure that extension cords, surge protectors, uninterruptible power supplies, and  
power strips that you use are rated to handle the electrical requirements of the  
product. Never overload these devices. If power strips are used, the load should  
not exceed the power strip input rating. Consult an electrician for more  
information if you have questions about power loads, power requirements, and  
input ratings.  
Plugs and outlets  
If a receptacle (power outlet) that you intend to use with your computer  
equipment appears to be damaged or corroded, do not use the outlet until it is  
replaced by a qualified electrician.  
Do not bend or modify the plug. If the plug is damaged, contact the manufacturer  
to obtain a replacement.  
Some products are equipped with a three-pronged plug. This plug fits only into a  
grounded electrical outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat this safety feature  
by trying to insert it into a non-grounded outlet. If you cannot insert the plug into  
the outlet, contact an electrician for an approved outlet adapter or to replace the  
outlet with one that enables this safety feature. Never overload an electrical outlet.  
The overall system load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.  
Consult an electrician for more information if you have questions about power  
loads and branch circuit ratings.  
Be sure that the power outlet you are using is properly wired, easily accessible,  
and located close to the equipment. Do not fully extend power cords in a way that  
will stress the cords.  
Connect and disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet carefully  
Batteries  
All IBM personal computers contain a non-rechargeable coin cell battery to provide  
power to the system clock. In addition many mobile products such as ThinkPad  
notebook PCs utilize a rechargeable battery pack to provide system power when in  
portable mode. Batteries supplied by IBM for use with your product have been  
tested for compatibility and should only be replaced with IBM approved parts.  
Never attempt to open or service any battery. Do not crush, puncture, or incinerate  
batteries or short circuit the metal contacts. Do not expose the battery to water or  
other liquids. Only recharge the battery pack strictly according to instructions  
included in the product documentation.  
Battery abuse or mishandling can cause the battery to overheat, which can cause  
gasses or flame to “vent” from the battery pack or coin cell. If your battery is  
damaged, or if you notice any discharge from your battery or the buildup of  
foreign materials on the battery leads, stop using the battery and obtain a  
replacement from the battery manufacturer.  
Batteries can degrade when they are left unused for long periods of time. For some  
rechargeable batteries (particularly Lithium Ion batteries), leaving a battery unused  
in a discharged state could increase the risk of a battery short circuit, which could  
viii ThinkPad CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Ultrabay Slim Drive: User’s Guide  
 
shorten the life of the battery and can also pose a safety hazard. Do not let  
rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries completely discharge or store these batteries in a  
discharged state.  
Heat and product ventilation  
Computers generate heat when turned on and when batteries are charging.  
Notebook PCs can generate a significant amount of heat due to their compact size.  
Always follow these basic precautions:  
v Do not leave the base of your computer in contact with your lap or any part of  
your body for an extended period when the computer is functioning or when  
the battery is charging. Your computer produces some heat during normal  
operation. Extended contact with the body could cause discomfort or, potentially,  
a skin burn.  
v Do not operate your computer or charge the battery near flammable materials or  
in explosive environments.  
v Ventilation slots, fans and/or heat sinks are provided with the product for safety,  
comfort, and reliable operation. These features might inadvertently become  
blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, carpet, or other flexible surface.  
Never block, cover or disable these features.  
CD and DVD drive safety  
CD and DVD drives spin discs at a high speed. If a CD or DVD is cracked or  
otherwise physically damaged, it is possible for the disc to break apart or even  
shatter when the CD drive is in use. To protect against possible injury due to this  
situation, and to reduce the risk of damage to your machine, do the following:  
v Always store CD/DVD discs in their original packaging  
v Always store CD/DVD discs out of direct sunlight and away from direct heat  
sources  
v Remove CD/DVD discs from the computer when not in use  
v Do not bend or flex CD/DVD discs, or force them into the computer or their  
packaging  
v Check CD/DVD discs for cracks before each use. Do not use cracked or  
damaged discs

Annexe B. IBM Statement of Limited Warranty - Z125-4753-07 -  
11/2002  
Part 1 - General Terms  
This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms, Part 2 -  
Country-unique Terms, and Part 3 - Warranty Information. The terms of Part 2 replace or  
modify those of Part 1. The warranties provided by IBM in this Statement of Limited  
Warranty apply only to Machines you purchase for your use, and not for resale. The term  
Machinemeans an IBM machine, its features, conversions, upgrades, elements, or  
accessories, or any combination of them. The term Machinedoes not include any software  
programs, whether pre-loaded with the Machine, installed subsequently or otherwise.  
Nothing in this Statement of Limited Warranty affects any statutory rights of  
consumers that cannot be waived or limited by contract.  
What this Warranty Covers  
IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and  
workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM’s Official Published Specifications  
(Specifications) which are available on request. The warranty period for the  
Machine starts on the original Date of Installation and is specified in Part 3 -  
Warranty Information. The date on your invoice or sales receipt is the Date of  
Installation unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise. Many features,  
conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM. A  
part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service status of the  
removed part. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, these warranties apply only in the  
country or region in which you purchased the Machine.  
THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE  
ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,  
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR  
CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR  
PURPOSE. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE  
EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE  
EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH  
WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD.  
NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR  
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN  
IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT  
APPLY TO YOU.  
What this Warranty Does not Cover  
This warranty does not cover the following:  
v
any software programs, whether pre-loaded or shipped with the Machine, or  
installed subsequently;  
v
failure resulting from misuse (including but not limited to use of any Machine  
capacity or capability, other than that authorized by IBM in writing), accident,  
modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, or improper  
maintenance by you;  
v
failure caused by a product for which IBM is not responsible; and  
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2004  
17  
 
v
any non-IBM products, including those that IBM may procure and provide with  
or integrate into an IBM Machine at your request.  
The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of identification labels on the  
Machine or its parts.  
IBM does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine.  
Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such as  
assistance via telephone with how-toquestions and those regarding Machine  
set-up and installation, is provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND.  
How to Obtain Warranty Service  
If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, contact  
IBM or your reseller to obtain warranty service. If you do not register the Machine  
with IBM, you may be required to present proof of purchase as evidence of your  
entitlement to warranty service.  
What IBM Will Do to Correct Problems  
When you call for service, you must follow the problem determination and  
resolution procedures that IBM specifies. A technician will attempt to make an  
initial diagnosis of your problem and help you resolve it over the telephone.  
The type of warranty service applicable to your Machine is specified in Part 3 -  
Warranty Information.  
You are responsible for downloading and installing designated Machine Code  
(microcode, basic input/output system code (called BIOS), utility programs,  
device drivers, and diagnostics delivered with an IBM Machine) and other  
software updates from an IBM Internet Web site or from other electronic media,  
and following the instructions that IBM provides.  
If your problem can be resolved with a Customer Replaceable Unit (CRU) (e.g.,  
keyboard, mouse, speaker, memory, hard disk drive and other easily replaceable  
parts), IBM will ship these parts to you for replacement by you.  
If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period and  
your problem cannot be resolved over the telephone, through your application of  
Machine Code or software updates, or with a CRU, IBM or your reseller, if  
approved by IBM to provide warranty service, will either, at its discretion, 1) repair  
it to make it function as warranted, or 2) replace it with one that is at least  
functionally equivalent. If IBM is unable to do either, you may return the Machine  
to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded.  
IBM or your reseller will also manage and install selected engineering changes that  
apply to the Machine.  
Exchange of a Machine or Part  
When the warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item  
IBM or your reseller replaces becomes its property and the replacement becomes  
yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and unaltered. The  
replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order and at least  
18 ThinkPad CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Ultrabay Slim Drive: User’s Guide  
functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement assumes the  
warranty service status of the replaced item.  
Your Additional Responsibilities  
Before IBM or your reseller exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove all  
features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service.  
You also agree to:  
1. ensure that the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that  
prevent its exchange;  
2. obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM or your reseller service a  
Machine that you do not own; and  
3. where applicable, before service is provided:  
a. follow the service request procedures that IBM or your reseller provides;  
b. backup or secure all programs, data, and funds contained in the Machine;  
c. IBM or your reseller with sufficient, free, and safe access to your facilities to  
permit IBM to fulfill its obligations; and  
d. inform IBM or your reseller of changes in the Machine’s location.  
4. (a) ensure all information about identified or identifiable individuals (Personal  
Data) is deleted from the Machine (to the extent technically possible), (b) allow  
IBM, your reseller or an IBM supplier to process on your behalf any remaining  
Personal Data as IBM or your reseller considers necessary to fulfill its  
obligations under this Statement of Limited Warranty (which may include  
shipping the Machine for such processing to other IBM service locations around  
the world), and (c) ensure that such processing complies with any laws  
applicable to such Personal Data.  
Limitation of Liability  
IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine only while it is 1) in  
IBM’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for the  
transportation charges.  
Neither IBM nor your reseller are responsible for any of your confidential,  
proprietary or personal information contained in a Machine which you return to  
IBM for any reason. You should remove all such information from the Machine  
prior to its return.  
Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on IBM’s part or other  
liability, you are entitled to recover damages from IBM. In each such instance,  
regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim damages from IBM  
(including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract or  
tort claim), except for any liability that cannot be waived or limited by applicable  
laws, IBM is liable for no more than  
1. damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and  
tangible personal property; and  
2. the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the charges (if recurring,  
12 months’ charges apply) for the Machine that is subject of the claim. For  
purposes of this item, the term Machineincludes Machine Code and Licensed  
Internal Code (LIC).  
Annexe B. IBM Statement of Limited Warranty - Z125-4753-07 - 11/2002 19  
This limit also applies to IBM’s suppliers and your reseller. It is the maximum for  
which IBM, its suppliers, and your reseller are collectively responsible.  
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS IBM, ITS SUPPLIERS OR RESELLERS  
LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING EVEN IF INFORMED OF THEIR  
POSSIBILITY: 1) THIRD PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES  
(OTHER THAN THOSE UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2) LOSS  
OF, OR DAMAGE TO, DATA; 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT  
DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; OR 4)  
LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS REVENUE, GOODWILL OR ANTICIPATED  
SAVINGS. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE  
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL  
DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY  
TO YOU. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW  
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE  
ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.  
Governing Law  
Both you and IBM consent to the application of the laws of the country in which  
you acquired the Machine to govern, interpret, and enforce all of your and IBM’s  
rights, duties, and obligations arising from, or relating in any manner to, the
