Safety Information

We use note, caution and warning symbols throughout this book to draw your attention to impor-

tant operational and safety information.

A “NOTE” marks a short message to alert you to an important detail.

A “CAUTION” safety alert appears with information that is important for protecting your equip-

ment and performance. Be especially careful to read and follow all cautions that apply to your 

application.

A “WARNING” safety alert appears with information that is important for protecting you, others 

and equipment from damage. Pay very close attention to all warnings that apply to your applica-

tion.

The electrical hazard symbol, 

precedes an electric shock hazard CAUTION or WARNING  

safety statement. Further explanations follow:
