Fire safety advice
•
Most kitchen fires occur
when people are distracted
or leave things unattended,
so remember:
•
If you’re called away from
the hob - 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
Service
If a pan catches fire
•
Do not move it as it’s
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.
•
Use fire blanket or a
damp tea-towel to cover the
pan.
•
If you have put the fire out,
leave the pan to cool com-
pletely.
