SAFETY DEFINITIONS

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to 
possible dangers. The safety symbols, and their explanations,

accident prevention measures.

 

DANGER

DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, 
will result in death or serious injury.

 

WARNING

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not 
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

 

CAUTION

CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, 
could result in minor or moderate injury.

hazard-related (e.g., messages relating to property damage).
