Corbett photo. E PREVE PAN FIRES : WEEK Oct. 9 - Oct. 15 Don't give fires a place to start. The safety precautions that you take now could avert a tragedy. PREVENTION is the best PROTECTION! 1. TURN OFF HEAT. 2. Try smothering the flame by covering the flame with a pan cover. It should completely cover the pan, watch out for yourself and your clothing. 3. If this doesn't work use a DRY CHEMICAL or CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE EXTINGUISHER. FIRE NEAR COMBUSTIBLES: 1. Get everyone out of the house. 2. Close doors to prevent the fire from spreading...then get out! 3. CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. OVEN FIRES: 1. TURN OFF HEAT. 2. Try smothering heat by closing the oven door for a few moments. 3. If this doesn't work, open door enough to use a DRY CHEMICAL or CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE EXTINGUISHER. For more information on CHIEF George Garrick 527-0873 DEP.
