SAFETY FIRST

Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this Job Aid and on the appliance.

Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word

“DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:

DANGER

WARNING

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the

chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t

immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t

follow instructions.
