FIRE SAFETY CAUTIoN Passing a
fire test in a controlled laboratory
setting and/or certifying or labeling
a product as having a one-hour, two-
hour, or any other fire resistance or
protection rating and, therefore, as
acceptable for use in certain fire rated
assemblies/systems, does not mean
that either a particular assembly/system
incorporating the product, or any given
piece of the product itself, will neces-
sarily provide one-hour fire resistance,
two-hour fire resistance, or any other
specified fire resistance or protection
in an actual fire. In the event of an
actual fire, you should immediately
take any and all actions necessary
for your safety and the safety of others
without regard for any fire rating of
any product or assembly/system.
