Safety Icons
The alert symbol
is used to identity safety
information about hazards that can result in personal
injury. A signal word (DANGER, WARNING, or
CAUTION) is used with the alert symbol to indicate
the likelihood and the potential severity of the injury.
In addition, a hazard icon may be used to represent
the type of hazard. An explanation of hazard levels
and icons are as follows:
DANGER
This indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, will
result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
This indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, could
result in serial injury or death.
CAUTION
This indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, might
result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE
These messages presented without the alert symbol
indicate a situation where the unit or property could
be damaged.
