Danger notices
A danger notice calls attention to a situation that is potentially lethal or extremely
hazardous to people. A lightning bolt symbol accompanies a danger notice to
represent a dangerous electrical condition. Read and comply with the following
danger notices before installing or servicing this device.
DANGER
To prevent a possible shock from touching two surfaces with
different protective ground (earth), use one hand, when possible, to
connect or disconnect signal cables. (D001)
DANGER
Overloading a branch circuit is potentially a fire hazard and a
shock hazard under certain conditions. To avoid these hazards,
ensure that your system electrical requirements do not exceed
branch circuit protection requirements. Refer to the information
that is provided with your device or the power rating label for
electrical specifications. (D002)
DANGER
If the receptacle has a metal shell, do not touch the shell until you
have completed the voltage and grounding checks. Improper wiring
or grounding could place dangerous voltage on the metal shell. If
any of the conditions are not as described, STOP. Ensure the
improper voltage or impedance conditions are corrected before
proceeding. (D003)
DANGER
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place
hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the devices that
attach to the system. It is the responsibility of the customer to
ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent
an electrical shock. (D004)
The following general electrical danger notice provides instructions on how to
avoid shock hazards when servicing equipment. Unless instructed otherwise,
follow the procedures in the following danger notice.
