5. EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID MEASURES

EYES : Flush with water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation occurs and persists,
contact a medical doctor.
SKIN : Remove contaminated clothing and thoroughly wash with soap and water. If irritation occurs
and persists, contact a medical doctor.
INGESTION : Rinse mouth with water. Dilute by giving 1 or 2 glasses of water. If the victim is fully
conscious, induce vomiting by tickling back of the throat. Do not administer milk, alcohol and fatty
substances. In case the person is unconscious make sure the breathing passage is kept clear without
any obstruction. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Victims head should be
turned to one side in the lying down position. In case of breathing difficulty, give mouth to mouth or
mouth to nose breathing. See a medical doctor immediately.
INHALATION : Remove to fresh air, loosen the clothings around neck and chest. If breathing
difficulty or discomfort occurs and persists, contact a medical doctor.

6. FIRE, EXPLOTION AND REACTIVITY

FIRE : Combustible.
EXTHINGUISHING MEDIA : Powder, water spray, foam, CO2.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES : When SAFE 1 200 SL is involved in a fire,
firefighters or other should wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus
exposed to vapors or products of combustion. All fire fighting equipment, including protective clothing
and self-contained breathing apparatus, needs to be decontaminated after use. Explosion hazard
does not occur.

7. HEALTH INFORMATION
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY : Caution, harmful if inhaled or swallowed.
ACUTE EFFECTS FROM OVEREXPOSURE : SAFE 1 200 SL is not a skin sensitizer.
Data from human experience indicates that imidacloprid, the active ingredient cause not irritation for
skin. A severe exposure may result of sign and symptoms of poisoning would be expected to be
similar to nicotinic sign and symptoms, including fatigue, twitching, cramps and muscle weakness
including the muscle necessary for breathing.

8. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

EYES AND FACE : For splash, mist or spray exposure, wear chemical protective goggles or
a face shield.
RESPIRATORY : For splash, mist or spray exposure wear, as a minimum, a properly fitted
half face or full-face air-purifying respirator which is approved for pesticides. Use and selection of
respirator must be based on airborn concentration.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING : Depending upon concentrations encountered, wear coveralls or
long-sleeved uniform and head covering. For larger exposures in the case of spills, wear full body
cover barrier suit, such as a PVC suit. Leather items-such as shoes, belts and watchbands that
become contaminated should be removed and destroyed. Launder all work clothing before reuse
(separately from household laundry).
VENTILATION : use local exhaust at all process locations when vapor or mist is emitted. Store in
well-ventilated area. Ventilate all transport vehicles prior to unloading.
GLOVES : Wear chemical protective gloves made of nitrile, neoprene, and when handling
this product.

9. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
