-In the event of contact with the skin:
If a high pressure jet of oil is applied to the skin there is a danger of the oil penetrating
the surface. The injured person should be taken to hospital even if no wound is apparent.
Remove all contaminated clothing. Wash the suspected area immediately with plenty of soap
and water.
-In the event of contact with the eyes:
Wash immediately with plenty of water. Hold the eyelids apart for at least 15 minutes.
-Ingestion:
Risk of vomiting and diarrhoea. Do not make the person drink to avoid the risk of inhalation by
the respiratory tracts. Do not drink water.
-Aspiration:
If there is a suspicion that the person may have inhaled oil into the lungs (when vomiting for
instance), take them to hospital immediately.
In all cases seek immediate medical attention
