Messages concerning
property damage
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.
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 serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE is used for messages concerning possible property
damage, product damage or malfunction, data loss, or other
unwanted results—but not personal injury.
