mally, or has been dropped.

The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within 
an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the 
presence of uninsulated voltage within the products en-
closure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute 
a risk of electric shock to persons.

Le symbole éclair avec le point de flèche à l´intérieur d´un triangle 
équilatéral est utilisé pour alerter l´utilisateur de la presence à 
l´intérieur du coffret de ”voltage dangereux” non isolé d´ampleur 
suffisante pour constituer un risque d`éléctrocution.

The exclamation mark within an equilateral triangle is 
intended to alert the user to the presence of important 
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the 
literature accompanying the product.
