We have designed and manufactured each Baumüller plug-in module in accordance with
the strictest safety regulations. Despite this, working with the plug-in module can be dan-
gerous for you.
In this chapter, we will describe the risks that can occur when working with a Baumüller
plug-in module. Risks are illustrated by icons. All the symbols that are used in this docu-
mentation are listed and explained.
In this chapter, we cannot explain how you can protect yourself from specific risks in in-
dividual cases. This chapter contains only general protective measures. We will go into
concrete protective measures in subsequent chapters directly after information about the
individual risk.
