Safety Labels<br />
Five user attention words appear in the text of all Applied Biosystems user<br />
documentation. Each word implies a particular level of observation or action as<br />
described below.<br />
Note Calls attention to useful information.<br />
IMPORTANT Indicates information that is necessary for proper instrument operation.<br />
! CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in<br />
minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.<br />
! WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in<br />
death or serious injury.<br />
! DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in<br />
death or serious injury. This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme situations.<br />
Safety labels are located on the instrument. Each safety label has three parts:<br />
♦ A signal word panel, which implies a particular level of observation or action<br />
(e.g., CAUTION or WARNING). If a safety label encompasses multiple hazards,<br />
the signal word corresponding to the greatest hazard is used<br />
♦ A message panel, which explains the hazard and any user action required<br />
♦ A safety alert symbol, which indicates a potential personal safety hazard. See the<br />
<strong>ABI</strong> PRISM <strong>7900HT</strong> <strong>Sequence</strong> <strong>Detection</strong> <strong>System</strong> Site Preparation and Safety<br />
Guide (P/N 4317595) for an explanation of all the safety alert symbols provided in<br />
several languages.<br />
Laser Exposure The components of the <strong>ABI</strong> PRISM® <strong>7900HT</strong> <strong>Sequence</strong> <strong>Detection</strong> <strong>System</strong> contain<br />
several lasers including an Argon laser within the <strong>7900HT</strong> instrument and a low power<br />
laser within each bar code reader (fixed-position and hand-held).<br />

WARNING LASER HAZARD. Exposure to direct or reflected laser light can burn the retina<br />
and leave permanent blind spots. Never look directly into the laser beam. Remove jewelry and<br />
other items that can reflect the beam into your eyes. Protect others from exposure to the beam.<br />
A site preparation and safety guide is a separate document sent to all customers who<br />
have purchased an Applied Biosystems instrument. Refer to the guide written for your<br />
instrument for information on site preparation, instrument safety, chemical safety, and<br />
waste profiles.
