Shut off supply; if not possible and no risk to surroundings, let the fire burn itself out. In other cases extinguish with carbon dioxide, dry powder. Combat fire from a sheltered position. In case of fire: keep cylinder cool by spraying with water.

Explosive limits , vol% in air: 6.2 - 12.3

Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Turn off gas at source if possible. Ventilation. Remove gas with fine water spray. NEVER direct water jet on liquid. Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus.

Fireproof. Cool. Keep in a well-ventilated room.

On loss of containment this substance can cause suffocation by lowering the oxygen content of the air in confined areas.

Asphyxiation. Rapid evaporation of the liquid may cause frostbite.

NO open flames, NO sparks and NO smoking. Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (e.g., by grounding) if in liquid state.

Use ventilation.

Cold-insulating gloves.

Wear face shield or safety goggles.
