Saab Original Service Programmes

Lengthy and repeated contact with mineral oil removes the natural oils from your skin, drying it out and causing irritation. If oil has been swallowed, do not provoke vomiting. Call a doctor.

Waste oil may contain harmful impurities which can cause skin cancer. Always use suitable protection and thoroughly wash your hands and other areas of bare skin that have come into contact with the oil.

Avoid lengthy and repeated contact with oil, grease, etc., especially waste oil.

Wear protective clothing, including impermeable gloves, if possible.

Do not put oily rags in your pockets.

Do not wear clothes that have been soiled by oil, especially items of underwear. Clothes must be washed at regular intervals.

Do not wear oily shoes.

Clean open cuts or wounds immediately and cover them with a suitable bandage.

Use barrier cream, part No. 30 04 397. Apply it to your exposed skin before each working period so that it will be easier for you to wash off oil and grease afterwards.

Remove oil from your face and hands, etc. by washing them thoroughly with soap and water (special skin cleansers and a nailbrush will help). Preparations containing lanolin will restore the skin's natural moisture.

Do not use petrol, paraffin, diesel oil, thinner or other solvents to clean skin.

If you notice any changes in your skin, consult a doctor without delay.

If possible, clean components before fitting.

If there is a danger of oil getting into your eyes, wear protective goggles, a visor or a facemask. Eye-washing equipment must also be readily available.
