Understanding safety alert messages
Safety alert messages call attention to potential safety hazards and tell you how to avoid them. These
messages are identified by the signal words DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, or NOTICE, as illustrated
below. To avoid possible property damage, personal injury, or in some cases possible death, read and
comply with all safety alert messages.
Messages concerning personal injury
The signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION indicate hazards that could result in personal injury
or in some cases death, as explained below. Each of these signal words indicates the severity of the
potential hazard.
DANGER indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
will
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in minor or moderate injury.
Messages concerning property damage
A NOTICE concerns property damage only.
NOTICE is used for advisory messages concerning possible property
damage, product damage or malfunction, data loss, or other unwanted
results—but
not
personal injury.
Safety symbols
The generic safety alert symbol
calls attention to a potential personal injury hazard. It appears
next to the DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION signal words as part of the signal word label. Other
symbols may appear next to DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION to indicate a specific type of hazard (for
example, fire or electric shock). If other hazard symbols are used in this document, they are identified in
this section.
