    IS LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN BY IARC, NTP, OSHA OR ACGIH.
Effects of Overexposure:HUMAN HEALTH EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE BY EYE
    CONTACT WITH THE VAPOR MAY INCLUDE EYE IRRITATION WITH DISCOMFORT,
    TEARING, OR BLURRING OF VISION. SKIN CONTACT WITH THE LIQUID MAY
    CAUSE TEMPORARY NERVOUS  SYSTEM DEPRESSION WITH ANESTHETIC EFFECTS
    SUCH AS DIZZINESS, HEADACHE, CONFUSION, INCOORDINATION, AND LOSS OF
    CONSCIOUSNESS, TEMPORARY ALTERATION OF THE HEART'S ELECTRICAL
    ACTIVITY WITH IRREGULAR PULS E, PALPITATIONS, OR INADEQUATE
    CIRCULATION, OR THE EFFECTS OF EXCLUSION OF OXYGEN WITH GROSSLY
    EXCESSIVE EXPOSURES.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:INDIVIDUALS WITH PREEXISTING
    DISEASES OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM OR CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM MAY
    HAVE INCREASED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO THE TOXICITY OF EXCESSIVE
    EXPOSURE.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

    CALL A PHYSI CIAN. SKIN CONTACT: IN CASE OF SKIN CONTACT, FUSH WITH
    WATER. TREAT FOR FROSTBITE IF NECESSARY BY GENTLY WARMING AFFECTED
    AREA. EYE CONTACT: IN CASE OF EYE CONTACT, IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES
    WITH PLENTY  OF WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. CALL A PHYSICIAN. INGESTION:
    IF SWALLOWED, INGESTION IS NOT CONSIDERED A POTENTIAL ROUTE OF
