4. First Aid Measures

   General

   In all cases of doubt or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

   Inhalation

   Remove patient to fresh air. Keep warm and at rest. Seek medical advice.

   Eyes

   In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice (S26).

5. Fire Fighting Measures

   Vapours are heavier than air and may travel considerable distances to a source of ignition and flashback. May form explosive vapour /air mixtures. In case of fire, use foam, carbon dioxide or dry agent - never use water (S43). In case of fire do not breathe fumes.

6. Accidental Release Measures

   Shut off all ignition sources. Ventilate area. Absorb spillage in suitable inert material. Sweep or shovel up spillage and remove to a safe place. Use non-sparking hand tools. Wear protective clothing as per section 8.

7. Handling and Storage

   Handling

   Do not breathe vapour / fumes (S23). Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In use, may form flammable / explosive vapour - air mixture (R18). Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Take precautionary measures against static discharges (S33).

   Storage

   Keep container tightly closed (S7). Store above 5°C. Do not store above 30°C. Keep in highly flammable materials store.

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

   Wear suitable protective clothing, including eye / face protection and gloves (plastic or rubber are recommended). In case of insufficient ventilation - wear suitable respiratory equipment S38.
