REMINDER OF PRECAUTIONS to adopt in order to avoid heat stroke and dehydration:

• Refresh yourself and wet your body (at least your face and forearms) several times a day
• If swimming, enter the water gradually
• Drink water regularly, at least 1.5 L without waiting to be thirsty
• Limit sugary or caffeinated drinks
• Eat enough food and favour water-rich foods (melon, watermelon, grapes, plums, tomatoes, cucumbers)
• Choose a cool or shady place
• Equip yourself with an umbrella, cap, sunglasses
• Apply high factor sun cream every 2 hours
• If possible, shift your trips to the least hot hours

• Do not drink alcohol
• Do not expose yourself to the sun between 11am and 4pm
• Never leave a person alone in a car, especially a child, even for a very short time as the temperature in the cabin can rise very quickly. The same applies to animals.
