The purpose of safety rules is to attract your attention to possible
dangers. The safety symbols and the explanations with them,
require your careful attention and understanding. The safety
warnings do not by themselves eliminate any danger. The
instruction or warnings they give are not substitutes for proper
accident prevention measures.

SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL.

warning. May be used in conjunction with other
symbols or pictures.

result in serious injury to yourself or to others.
Always follow the safety precautions to reduce the
risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury.
