2.2. Types and meaning of safety information
Some processes need to be carried out in several steps.
Where any of these steps involves a risk, the safety advice
is included directly in its instructions.
The safety advice always precedes the risky step and is
printed in normal type using a signal word in bold and
capitals.
Example:
1. NOTE: Please note this information. It warns of a risk
involved in the next step.
