Explanation of signal words and the Safety alert symbol

The Safety Instructions in the available application documentation contain
specific signal words (DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION or NOTICE) and,
where required, a safety alert symbol (in accordance with ANSI
Z535.6-2011).
The signal word is meant to draw the reader's attention to the safety instruc‐
tion and identifies the hazard severity.
The safety alert symbol (a triangle with an exclamation point), which pre‐
cedes the signal words DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION, is used to alert
the reader to personal injury hazards.
