5.6.4 First-Aid Measures
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of cool water
for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart while flushing
to rinse entire surface of eye and lids with water. Seek
immediate medical attention.
Skin: In case of cold burns, immediately place affected
area in warm water (104-107 F, 40-42 C) and keep
immersed until circulation returns. Seek immediate medi-
cal attention.
Other requirements: Severe inhalation or overexposure
to this material may sensitize the heart to cat echo la
mine-induced arrhythmia. Do not administer cat echo la
mine* to overexposed individuals. Contact the Poisons
Information Service and/or seek further medical advice.
*(Cat echo la mine are chemical compounds derived
from the amino and tyrosine that act as hormones or
neurotransmitters. “Wikipedia Encyclopedia”)
5.6.5 Fire-Fighting Measures
Activate emergency systems and/or sound the alarm.
Call the Fire Department. Evacuate all persons from
the area.
Ensure an escape route is always available from any
fire. If it is safe to do so, close the container valves.
If unable to cut off supply of gas, allow it to burn.
Allow any gas-fueled fire to burn out.
Keep LPG cylinders or tanks cool, as pressurized
containers will explode if subjected to high tempera-
tures.
Small LPG fires can be attacked with dry powder fire
extinguishers, provided the fuel supply can be turned
off after the fire is extinguished.
5.6.6 Accidental Release Measures
As these substances have a very low flash point, any
spillage or leak is a severe fire and/or explosion hazard.
Take the following measures in the event of a leak:
If a leak has not ignited, stop gas flow at container,
eliminate all sources of ignition, and evacuate all
persons. Stay upwind of release. Inform emergency
services.

Liquid leaks generate large volumes of flammable
vapor, heavier than air, which may travel to sources
of ignition (e.g. along drainage systems).
Where appropriate, use water spray to disperse the
gas or vapor.
Vapor may collect in any confined space.
If spillage has occurred in a confined space, ensure
adequate ventilation and check that a safe, breath-
able atmosphere is present before entry.
Do not enter a vapor cloud. Only trained specialized
individuals should attempt to enter a vapor cloud.
Wear protective clothing (see section on Exposure
Controls / Personal Protection).
Small quantities of spilled liquid may be allowed to evapo-
rate. Vapor should be dispersed by effective ventilation.
In the event of a major leak, contact the appropriate
authorities.
5.6.7 Handling and Storage
Store and use only in equipment/containers for use
with your particular appliance. Tanks should only
be stored in a locker installed and designed for LPG
storage, outside the living areas of the boat.
Installation of added appliances should only be per-
formed by qualified personnel.
Follow manufacturer’s instructions for changing
tanks.
Ensure good ventilation.
Avoid inhalation of vapor.
When handling cylinders, wear protective footwear
and suitable gloves.
When handling cylinders (above head height) protec-
tive headgear may be necessary.
When changing tanks, wear suitable gloves and
safety goggles or face shields.
Avoid contact with the eyes.
