TO OPERATE: If you use a fire extinguisher remember the word PASS.

PULL…Pull the pin. 

Some extinguishers require releasing a latch or pressing a puncture lever.

AIM… Aim low, pointing the extinguisher nozzle

(or its horn or hose) at the base of the fire.

Squeeze… Squeeze the handle. This releases the extinguishing agent.

SWEEP… Sweep from side to side at the base of the fire until it appears to be out. Watch the fire area in case fire breaks out again, and repeat the use of the extinguisher if necessary.

Please remember it is your responsibility to have your fire extinguishers inspected annually per NFPA code.
