WARNING:
- Contact of liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant with skin and eyes will cause frostbite. The refrigerant cools the surface coming in contact with it to a temperature much lower than the freezing point of water. Avoid contact with HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant and wear goggles and gloves whenever handling the refrigerant. Should the refrigerant happen to contact your eyes or skin, immediately take action as described below to prevent aggravating the condition:
- In the event of eye contact, do not rub the eye you're your hand. Instead, pour fresh cold water over the eye to gradually raise the temperature. After washing the eye thoroughly with water, receive medical attention as soon as possible.
- If liquid HFC-134a (R-134a) contacts your skin, wash the affected area thoroughly with water. Since the skin may have been frostbitten, receive medical attention.
- If HFC-134a (R-134a) is exposed to high temperatures, it turns into a poisonous gas. Be sure to take the following precautions to prevent health problems caused by HFC-134a (R-134a) gas.
- Do not handle refrigerant in or near any area where welding or steam cleaning is performed.
- Keep refrigerant in a cold and dark place. Avoid storing it under direct sunlight, in a place close to fire or inside a vehicle.
- If HFC-134a (R-134a) is burned, avoid breathing fumes.
