FIRE EXTINGUISHER USE
WARNING
If you have the slightest doubt about your ability to fight a
fire, EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY
Sound the fire alarm and call the fire department,
if appropriate. Identify a safe evacuation path
before approaching the fire. Do not allow the fire,
heat, or smoke to come between you and your
evacuation path. Select the appropriate type of fire
extinguisher.
Discharge the extinguisher within its effective
range using the PASS method (Pull, Aim, Squeeze,
Sweep).
Back away from an extinguished fire in case it
flames up again. Evacuate immediately if the extin -
guisher is empty and the fire is not out. Evacuate
immediately if the fire progresses beyond the incip -
ient stage.
Most fire extinguishers operate using the follow -
ing P.A.S.S. technique:
1. PULL - Pull the pin. This will also break the tamper seal.
2. AIM - Aim low, pointing the extinguisher nozzle (or its
horn or hose) at the base of the fire.
3. NOTE: Do not touch the plastic discharge horn on CO2
extinguishers. It gets very cold and may damage skin.
4. SQUEEZE - Squeeze the handle to release the extin -
guishing agent.
5. SWEEP - Sweep from side to side at the base of the
fire until it appears to be out. Watch the area. If the
fire re-ignites, repeat steps 2 - 4.
