Fighting a fire, remember to adhere to these following guidelines:
-
No matter where you are, know where the fire extinguishers are and how to use them correctly so that you can act quickly.
-
Know what to do and do it quickly.
-
Act safely and with caution.
-
Sound the alarm.
-
Warn others in the area.
-
If you have not been trained on how to use a fire extinguisher and fight a fire, sound the alarm and get out.
-
Don’t be a hero.
- Stand by to direct the firefighters to the fire and stay back, out of the way, unless you’re asked to help and have been trained to do so.
If you follow these simple guidelines, you may be able to put out a small fire or at least keep a small fire under control.
Is better to lose one minute in life… than to lose life in a minute.
