Electrical shock may cause minor injury.
Do not touch terminals while electricity is being supplied.

There is a risk of minor electrical shock, fire, or device failure. 
Do not allow any pieces of metal, conductors, or cutting chips 
that occur during the installation process to enter the product.

Explosions may cause minor injuries. Do not use the product  
in locations with inflammable or explosive gases.

There is a risk of minor electrical shock, fire, or device failure. 
Do not disassemble, modify, repair, or touch the inside of the 
product.

Loose screws may cause fires. Tighten terminal screws to the 
specified torque of 0.49 to 0.59 N·m.

Use of excessive torque may damage the terminal screws. 
Tighten terminal screws to the specified torque of 0.49 to 
0.59 N·m.

Use of the product beyond its life may result in contact welding 
or burning. Make sure to consider the actual operating 
conditions and use the product within its rated load and 
electrical life count. The life of the output relay varies 
significantly with the switching capacity and switching 
conditions.

 CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation 
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or 
moderate injury or in property damage.

Precautions for Safe 

Use

Supplementary comments on what to do or 
avoid doing, to use the product safely.

Precautions for 

Correct Use

Supplementary comments on what to do or 
avoid doing, to prevent failure to operate, 
malfunction, or undesirable effects on 
product performance.

Used to warn of the risk of electric shock under 
specific conditions.

Used for general prohibitions for which there is no 
specific symbol.

Used to indicate prohibition when there is a risk of 
minor injury from electrical shock or other source if 
the product is disassembled.
