2. Safety Warning and Instruction System
You will find safety warnings and instruction labels throughout this manual. These have been included to
ensure your safety and must be followed. Safety labels are vertically oriented rectangles as shown in the
samples below. These labels consist of three panels inside a border. Each safety label will communicate the
following three key pieces of information. This information is communicated using narrative and pictorials.
The nature and severity of the hazard
The consequence of the hazard, if not avoided
The precautions and measures required to avoid the hazard.
The top panel of the safety label illustrates the signal word (DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION) which
communicates the severity of the hazard, per the above explanations. The center panel contains a pictorial
which communicates the nature of the hazard, and the possible consequence of hazard, if not avoided. In
some cases, the pictorial may depict the precautions or measures required to avoid the hazard. The bottom
panel will then contain the remaining narrative information needed to ensure all three key pieces of
information have been conveyed.
