First Aid:INHAL: IMMED REMOVE VICTIM TO FRESH AIR. IF BRTHG HAS
STOPPED, GIVE ARTF RESP. IF BRTHG IS DFCLT, GIVE OXYGEN. EYES:
REMOVE VICTIM FROM SOURCE OF CONT. RINSE IMMED W/PLENTY OF WATER
FOR AT LEAST 15 MI NS & SEEK MED ADVICE. SKIN: DO NOT APPLY DIRECT
HEAT. DO NOT RUB FROZEN AREA. FLUSH AFFECTED AREA W/TEPID WATER.
