WARNING WARNING

Please keep the following points in mind when using the tire sealing system:

  • The sealing compound bottle (no. 8 in the illustration) contains 1.2-Ethanol and natural rubber-latex. These substances are harmful if swallowed.
  • The contents of this bottle may cause allergic skin reactions or otherwise be potentially harmful to the skin, the central nervous system, and the eyes.

Precautions:

  • Keep out of reach of children.
  • Do not ingest the contents.
  • Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with the skin.
  • Hands should be washed thoroughly after handling.

First aid:

  • Skin: Wash affected areas of skin with soap and water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
  • Eyes: Flush with plenty of water for least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
  • Inhalation: Move the person to fresh air. If irritation persists, get medical attention.

NOTE NOTE

Do not break the seal on the bottle. This occurs automatically when the bottle is screwed into the holder.
