SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following general safety precautions supplement the
specific WARNINGs, CAUTIONs and NOTEs that appear
elsewhere in this manual.
WARNING
The Advanced Target Pointer Illuminator Aiming
Light (ATPIAL) emits both visible and invisible
laser radiation. Nominal Skin Hazard Distances
(NSHD) and Nominal Ocular Hazard Distances
(NOHD) for safe operation are listed in Table i-1.
Exposure to the ATPIAL’s laser beams within
these distances can cause irreversible damage to
the human eye.
