The following symbols are used in this manual and online help system:
Warns the reader of potential electrocution should the reader ignore the warning
and deliberately use specialized tools to open a sealed electrical cabinet and
handle its contents. Note: No tools are provided by Faxitron Bioptics LLC.
Warns the reader of a hazardous condition. This symbol is generally
accompanied by a more specific symbol and appropriate instructions as to the
nature of the hazard, the expected outcome of the hazard, and information on
avoiding the hazard.
Cautions the reader to use care in lifting heavy equipment in order to avoid
personal injury and damage to the equipment.

approved specimen container) to avoid exposure to potentially infections
materials such as patient tissue samples.
