Safety and Environmental Notices
When using this product, observe the danger, caution, and attention notices that are
contained in this guide. Symbols that represent the severity of the safety condition
accompany the notices.
The sections that follow define each type of safety notice and give examples.
Danger Notice
A danger notice calls attention to a situation that is potentially lethal or extremely
hazardous to people. A lightning bolt symbol always accompanies a danger notice
to represent a dangerous electrical condition. A sample danger notice follows:
DANGER
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place
hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the products
that attach to the system. It is the customer’s responsibility to
ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent
an electrical shock.
Caution Notice
A caution notice calls attention to a situation that is potentially hazardous to people
because of some existing condition. One of several symbols can accompany a
caution notice:
If the symbol is... It means....
A hazardous electrical condition with less severity than an
electrical danger.
A generally hazardous condition not represented by other
safety symbols.
A hazardous condition due to the use of a laser in the
product. Laser symbols are always accompanied by the
classification of the laser as defined by the U. S.
Department of Health and Human Services (for example,
Class I, Class II, and so forth).
