Safety Icons

The alert symbol is used to identity safety information about hazards that can result in personal injury.

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.

CAUTION or NOTICE

These messages presented without the alert symbol indicate a situation where the unit or property could be damaged.
