OR OSHA.
Effects of Overexposure:LIGHT-HEADEDNESS, GIDDINESS, SHORTNESS OF
BREATH, NARCOSIS, CARDIAC IRREGULARITIES, UNCONSCIOUSNESS OR DEATH,
FROSTBITES.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH KNOWN HISTORY OF HEART
DISEASE OR IRREGULARITIES OF HEARTBEAT SHOULD BE PARTICULARY
CAREFUL TO AVOID OVEREXPOSURE.

First Aid:INALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR, CALL A PHYSICIAN. IF NOT
BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT,
