It might be quite important to learn how to use fire extinguishers if you want to protect your home, company, and personal safety from the effects of a fire.
The ‘PASS’ method makes it simple to remember this:
- Remove the pin. By doing so, the seal is broken, enabling usage of the fire extinguisher.
- Aim towards the fire’s base.
- To launch the extinguisher at the flames, slowly squeeze the handle or lever.
- Make sure the entire fire is covered by sweeping from side to side.
