SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Eye Contact Immediate medical attention is required. Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also

under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.

Skin Contact Immediate medical attention is required. Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at

least 15 minutes.

Inhalation Immediate medical attention is required. Remove from exposure, lie down. Remove to fresh

air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim

ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask

equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
