hp pavilion f1503/f1703 LCD Monitor Regulatory Information TCO '99 You have just purchased a TCO '99 approved and labeled product! Your choice has provided you with a product developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products. Why do we have environmentally labeled computers? In many countries/regions, environmental labeling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature. There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (for example, acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy. What does the environmental labeling involve? This product meets the requirements for the TCO '99 scheme which provides for an international and environmental labeling of personal computers. The labeling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration), and SEMKO AB. The requirements cover a wide range of issues: Environmental, ergonomic, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption, and electrical safety. 53 English

TCO ’99
You have just purchased a TCO ’99 approved and labeled product!
Your choice has provided you with a product developed for
professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the
burden on the environment and to the further development of
environmentally adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labeled computers?
In many countries/regions, environmental labeling has become an
established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and
services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers
and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that
environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products
and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to
satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of
these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both
the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all
methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the
environment (for example, acidic and climate-influencing emissions,
radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in
offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot
of energy.
What does the environmental labeling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO ’99 scheme which
provides for an international and environmental labeling of personal
computers. The labeling scheme was developed as a joint effort by
the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees),
Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature
Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National
Energy Administration), and SEMKO AB.
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: Environmental,
ergonomic, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields,
energy consumption, and electrical safety.
