1:1993, EN60825-1:1994+A11:1996. The laser classification is marked on
one of the labels on the product.
Class 1 Laser devices are not considered to be hazardous when used for their
intended purpose. The following statement is required to comply with US and
international regulations:
Caution: Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser light exposure.
Class 2 laser scanners use a low power, visible light diode. As with any very
bright light source, such as the sun, the user should avoid staring directly into
the light beam. Momentary exposure to a Class 2 laser is not known to be
harmful.
