2.2 General safety precautions
This section contains general safety precautions.
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.
2. Safety

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.
WARNING
Using a charging device different from the one supplied by the 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.

WARNING
Lithium battery packs may get hot, explode, or ignite and cause serious injury
if they are misused electrically or mechanically.
Observe the following precautions when handling and using lithium-ion
batteries:
•Do not short-circuit, recharge, or connect with false polarity.
•Do not expose to temperatures beyond the specified temperature range or
incinerate the battery.
•Do not crush, puncture, or disassemble the battery. The battery contains
safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery to
generate heat, explode, or ignite.
•Do not allow the battery to get wet.
•In the event the battery leaks and the fluid gets into one’s eye, do not rub
the eye. Rinse well with water, and immediately seek medical care. If left
untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.
•In case of fire, use water to put out the fire. There is no need for special
extinguishing media. An ambient fire can be fought with class D
extinguishing media.
•Do not touch damaged batteries with bare hands. Only personnel using
suitable Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and tools should handle
damaged batteries.
•Isolate the battery and keep clear if the following conditions are observed:
•The battery exhibits abnormally high temperatures.
•The battery emits abnormal odors.
•The battery changes color.
•The battery case is deformed or otherwise differs from the normal
electrical or mechanical condition.
•Modifications or manipulations of the battery may lead to considerable
safety risks and are therefore prohibited.
•Do not use the battery for anything other than MiR100.

WARNING
Load falling or robot overturning if the load on the robot is not positioned or
fastened correctly can cause fall injuries to nearby personnel or damage to
equipment.
•Ensure that the load is positioned according to the specifications and is
fastened correctly—see the user guide of your robot for safe payload
distribution.
CAUTION
Load placed directly on top of the robot cover may cause damage to the cover
of the robot.
•Ensure that the load is not placed directly on top of the robot cover.
CAUTION
Robot malfunctions can cause an electrical fire, causing damage and injury to
equipment and personnel.
•Personnel operating near the robot must be informed on how to use an
ABC fire extinguisher to put out an electrical fire should the robot
malfunction and catch on fire.
CAUTION
Risk of trapping or injury to personnel if robots malfunction or if personnel
enter operating hazard zones.
•Personnel operating near the robot must be informed on how to engage
the robot's Emergency stop function in emergency situations.

NOTICE
Moving the robot by hand forcefully may cause damage to the top cover.
•If the robot is stuck, push or pull gently on the top cover corners to move
the robot.
2.3 Intended use
MiR100 is intended to be commissioned and used in indoor industrial environments where
access for the public is restricted. For details about the environmental conditions in which
MiR100 should operate, see specifications for MiR100 on the MiR website.
MiR100 is intended to be commissioned according to the guidelines in your robot's user
guide. This is a prerequisite for safe usage of MiR100.
MiR100 is equipped with safety-related features that are purposely designed for
collaborative operation where the robot operates without a safety enclosure or together
with people.
MiR100 is intended to be used with top modules supported by Mobile Industrial Robots or
custom modules that:
•Do not have any moving parts.
•Do not extend the physical dimensions of the robot.
•Operate within the environmental conditions required for MiR100.
•Are within the weight distribution requirements—see your robot's user guide.
If used with custom modules, all obligations of a manufacturer apply to the individual who
performs the modifications. All modifications must be in accordance with the machinery
directive.
MiR100 is designed for and all risks are considered when used with one of the following
types of top modules:
•MiRHook100 to tow carts.
MiR100 can be used as a partly complete machine as defined in the EU machinery directive
with top modules that do not meet the above limitations. Those who design, manufacture,
