Important conventions

Important conventions, used in this document, are described
below.
This manual covers the Ultrasound systems listed in:
'Vivid E80/E90/E95 models covered by this manual' on
page 1-2.
Pictures, or icons, are used wherever they will reinforce the
printed message. The icons, labels, and conventions used on
the product and in the service information are described in this
chapter.
Various levels of safety precaution messages may be found on
the equipment and in the service information. The different
levels of concern are identified by a flag word that precedes the
precautionary message. Known or potential hazards to
personnel are labeled in one of three ways:
• DANGER
• WARNING
• CAUTION
Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that will
cause severe personal injury or death, or substantial property
damage if the instructions are ignored.
