2 WARNING STATEMENTS While most unlikely, product may cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation for those who are highly sensitive. Just as breathing anything other than normal ambient air, overexposure of vapors may cause dizziness. Containers, while non-flammable, are pressurized, and can burst under fire conditions. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS Primary Routes of Exposure Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation. Skin Contact: May cause skin irritation. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. Ingestion: Not a normal route of exposure. Chronic: Prolonged or repeated contact may dry skin and cause irritation. Other: Refer to Section 11 for toxicological information. SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES If in Eyes: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. If easy to do, remove contact lenses, if worn. If on Skin: In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Call a physician if irritation develops and persists. If Inhaled: Move exposed person to fresh air. If Swallowed: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
