English term or phrase: Avoid producing mist or vapors by heating of opened recipient.

Hi there,

I have a small collections of phrases to translate. The first one reads :"Avoid producing mist or vapors by heating of opened recipient." and I am not sure of what it means...

If it helps the rest of the text reads :"Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze solder, drill, grind, or expose containers to flames, sparks, heat, or other potential ignition sources. Do not allow surface water to enter drains and sewers as this will create a potential explosive hazard. If this occurs inform local authorities immediately."

Unfortunately no more context available.

I am not clear whether I should heat an open recipient or not in order to avoid the mist.

Thanks.
