SECTION 2
OCCUPANT SAFETY

AFETY
At best, a fire in your RV can delay or ruin a
vacation; at worst, it can mean injury, financial
loss, and even death.
•
If a fire starts, execute your family safety
plan.
•
Make sure everyone knows to stop, drop
to the ground and roll back and forth,
shielding their face from the fire with their
hands, if their clothes catch fire.
•
Do not store combustible materials in
closed areas or near a heat source.
•
Do not attempt to use water to put out a
grease fire. Water can spread some types
of fire and create an electrocution hazard
during an electrical fire.
Campfires
Learn and teach safe fire practices. Check
with the campground staff or local fire
department to see if campfires are
permissible where you are camping.
•
Build campfires away from nearby trees or
bushes.
•
Maintain at least a three-foot clear area
free of leaves, dry grass, pine needles,
etc., around grills, campfires and/or tents.
•
Supervise children at all times when
campfires are burning or grills are in use.
•
Always have a way to extinguish the
campfire quickly and completely.
•
Never leave a fire — even a cigarette —
burning unattended.
Due to potential pests and diseases (i.e.,
gypsy moths, oak wilt, and the emerald ash
borer, etc.) which pose a serious threat to
trees, some areas now prohibit bringing in
your own firewood. In the United States,
check the state’s DNR webpage for the area
you are planning camp, or ask if you can
bring in your own firewood when making your
camping reservations.

XTINGUISHER
The Underwriter Laboratories (UL) classify
household fire extinguishers into four types.
The factory-installed dry chemical fire
extinguisher is suitable for extinguishing small
fires of the Class B and Class C type.
Rating Intended
use
Type A
For use on fires involving combustible
materials such as wood, cloth and
paper.
Type B
For use on flammable liquid fires,
including kitchen grease. Never use
water on this type of fire!
Type C
For use in fires involving energized
electrical equipment.
Type ABC
Works on all three types of fires listed
above.
Operation
Teach family members how to use the fire
extinguisher and replace it as recommended.
A portable fire extinguisher can save lives and
property by putting out a small fire or
containing it until the fire department arrives;
but portable extinguishers have limitations.
•
It is important to recognize when to leave
the RV. Because fire grows and spreads
so rapidly, the number one priority is to
get out safely.
•
Keep your back to a clear exit when you
use the fire extinguisher so you can make
an easy escape if the fire cannot be
controlled.
There are different types and sizes of fire
extinguishers, but for the most part they all
work the same way. To operate a fire
extinguisher, remember the word
PASS
.
Avoid inhaling the dry chemical agent in
the fire extinguisher. It is not toxic, but may
cause skin irritation. In case of contact,
flush the affected area with clean, cool
water. If irritation persists, contact a
physician immediately.
