How to Use a Fire Extinguisher
| P A S S -- Pull, Aim, Squeeze, and Sweep |
| Pull the pin at the top of the extinguisher that keeps the handle from being accidentally pressed. |
| Aim the nozzle toward the base of the fire. |
| Stand approximately 8 feet away from the fire and squeeze the handle to discharge the extinguisher. If you release the handle, the discharge will stop. |
| Sweep the nozzle back and forth at the base of the fire. After the fire appears to be out, watch it carefully since it may re-ignite! |
