Precautions for Safe Use
To ensure safe and proper use of the SMARTSTEP 2 Series and its peripheral devices, read the “Precautions
for Safe Use” and the rest of the manual thoroughly to acquire sufficient knowledge of the devices, safety
information, and precautions before using the products.
Make sure this User’s Manual is delivered to the actual end users of the products.
Please keep this manual close at hand for future reference.
Explanation of Signal Words
The precautions indicated here provide important information for safety. Be sure to heed the information
provided with the precautions.
The following signal words are used to indicate and classify precautions in this manual.
Failure to heed the precautions classified as “Caution” may also lead to serious results. Strictly heed
these precautions.
Safety Precautions
This manual may include illustrations of the product with protective covers or shields removed in order to show
the components of the product in detail. Make sure that these protective covers and shields are put in place as
specified before using the product.
