Green Products - Resource Conservation in Products

In the case of our personal fax machine KX-PW506,we were able to reduce the volume and weight by 73% and 80% respectively (against the previous model, KX-PW503DL) by implementing the following design changes. We totally reviewed the composition and shapes of the parts and we substantially reduced the number of screws to make it easier to dismantle the product for recycling. Also, we eliminated the space required for unscrewing. In addition, we integrated the main body of the fax machine and the handset holder to make them more compact, thereby achieving the world's smallest size.^*

• * World's smallest size for the volume of the main body of the plain paper personal fax machine, excluding the receiver and protruding parts (as of September 15, 2006)
