2.2 General safety precautions
This section contains general safety precautions.
WARNING
Harmful electromagnetic interference might be the result of having
two radio modules transmitting at the same time.
•Do not attach an access point or additional radio modules to the
robot while it is connected to a wireless network.
WARNING
If the robot is not running the correct software and is therefore not
functioning properly, the robot may collide with personnel or
equipment causing injury or damage.
•Ensure that the robot is always running the correct software.
WARNING
When the robot is in an operating hazard zone, there is a risk of
injury to any personnel within the zone.
•Ensure that all personnel are instructed to stay clear of operating
hazard zones when the robot is in the zone.
WARNING
The robot may drive over the feet of personnel, causing injury.
•All personnel must be informed of the side Protective fields of the
robot and be instructed to wear safety shoes near an operating
robot.

WARNING
The robot may drive into a ladder, scaffold, or similar equipment that
has a person standing on it. Personnel risk fall injuries, and
equipment may be damaged.
•Don't place ladders, scaffolds, or similar equipment in the robot's
work environment.
WARNING
The robot may drive down staircases or holes in the floor and cause
serious injury to personnel and damage to the robot and to
equipment.
•Mark all descending staircases and holes as Forbidden zones on
maps.
•Install physical barriers around descending staircases and holes
that are in the robot's operating area. If the hazard is not close to
the robot's operating area, it may be sufficient to use a Forbidden
zone on its own.
•Keep the maps up to date.
•Inform personnel that the robot cannot detect descending
staircases and holes in the floor in time to stop.
WARNING
Contact with live electrical parts can cause electric shock.
•Do not touch any internal components of the robot while it is
powered.

manufacturer can cause a fire and thereby burn injuries to nearby
personnel and damage to the robot and equipment.
•Only use an original MiR charger.
