TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN
THE EVENT OF A COOKTOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:

or metal tray, then turn off the burner. Be careful to
prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immedi-
ately, evacuate and call the fire department.
•
Never pick up a flaming pan—you may be burned.
•
Do not use water, including wet dishcloths or towels
—a violent steam explosion will result.

You know you have a class ABC extinguisher and
you already know how to operate it.

The fire is small and contained in the area where it
started.

You can fight the fire with your back to an exit

TO REDUCE RISK OF COOKTOP GREASE FIRE:
A) Never leave surface units unattended at high
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on
low or medium settings.
B) Always turn hood on when cooking at high heat
or when flambeing foods (i.e. Crepes Suzette,
Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
C) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
D) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.
