FIRE SAFETY
If a fire does start, follow these basic safety rules:
1. Have everyone evacuate the RV immediately.
2. After everyone is clear and accounted for, check the fire to see if you can
attempt to put it out.
3. If it is large, or the fire is fuel-fed, get clear of the RV and have the Fire
Department handle the emergency.
4. Do not attempt to use water to put out the fire. Water can spread some types
of fire, and electrocution is possible with an electrical fire.
