Fire Safety Advice
Most kitchen fires occur when people are
distracted or leave things unattended, so
remember:
If you’re called away from the cooker - by
the phone or someone at the door, either
take pans off the heat, or switch off your
hob.
Don’t let yourself be distracted while
cooking.
If you do have a fire in the kitchen, don’t
take any risks - get everyone out of your
home and call the Fire Brigade.
Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or
oil can be dangerous and may result in a
fire. NEVER try to extinguish a fire with
water, but switch off the appliance and
then cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire
blanket.
WARNING - If a pan catches fire:
•
Do not move it - it is likely to be
extremely hot
•
Turn off the heat if it’s safe to do so
- but never lean over a pan to reach
the controls.
•
If you have a fire blanket, put it over
the pan.
•
If you have put the fire out, leave the
pan to cool completely.
Deep-fat frying presents more
dangers in your kitchen.
•
Never fill a chip pan (or other deep-
fat fryer) more than one-third full of
oil
•
Do not use a fire extinguisher
on a pan of oil - the force of the
extinguisher can spread the fire and
create a fireball.
If you have an electrical fire in the
kitchen:
•
Pull the plug out, or switch off the
power at the fuse box - this may be
enough to stop the fire immediately
•
Smother the fire with a fire blanket,
or use a dry powder or carbon dioxide
extinguisher
•
Never use water on an electrical or
cooking oil fire.
