AVOID INHALATION OF DUST AND FUMES. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN OR CLOTHING. UPON CONTACT WITH SKIN OR EYES, WASH OFF WITH WATER. REMOVE AND WASH CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE. STORAGE CONDITIONS: Keep product tightly sealed in original containers. Store product in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Store away from combustible or flammable products. Keep product packaging clean and free of all contamination, including, e.g., other pool treatment products, acids, organic materials, nitrogen-containing compounds, dry powder fire extinguishers (containing mono-ammonium phosphate), oxidizers, all corrosive liquids, flammable or combustible materials, etc. DO NOT STORE AT TEMPERATURES ABOVE: 52 Deg.C (125 Deg.F) Storage above this temperature may result in rapid decomposition, evolution of chlorine gas and heat sufficient to ignite combustible products. PRODUCT STABILITY AND COMPATIBILITY SHELF LIFE LIMITATIONS: Shelf life (that is, the period of time before the product goes below stated label strength) is determined by storage time and temperatures. Do not store product at temperatures above 52 Deg.C (125 Deg.F). When stored under moderate temperature conditions, product will maintain stated label strength for approximately two years. Prolonged storage at 35 Deg.C (95 Deg.F) or above will significantly shorten the shelf life. Storage in a climate-controlled storage area or building is recommended in those areas where extremes of high temperature occur. INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS FOR PACKAGING: Product packaging must be clean and free of contamination by other materials, including, e.g., other pool treatment products, acids, organic materials, nitrogen- containing compounds, dry powder fire extinguishers (containing mono- ammonium phosphate), oxidizers, all corrosive liquids, flammable or combustible materials, etc. INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS FOR STORAGE OR TRANSPORT: Do not allow product to come in contact with other materials, including, e.g., other pool treatment products, acids, organic materials, nitrogen-containing compounds, dry powder fire extinguishers (containing mono-ammonium phosphate), oxidizers, all corrosive liquids, flammable or combustible materials, etc. SECTION 4 PHYSICAL DATA APPEARANCE: White tablet-form product FREEZING POINT: Not Applicable BOILING POINT: Not Applicable
