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.

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.
