Safety
After the re is out, beware of ashback.
Flashback occurs when ammable vapors
from combustible liquids spread back to the
ignition source and reignite the re.
Function
Fire extinguishers are designed to put out a re
in its initial stages. Once a re is out of control
and you cannot get within 10 feet (3 m), it is too
big to ght with your extinguisher.
Do not discharge your re extinguisher to test it.
Once it is discharged, even for a few seconds, it
will lose pressure and become useless.
Periodically check the pressure gauge (1) on
your re extinguisher. If it loses pressure, the
dry chemical will not effectively discharge.
NOTICE
If the pointer on the pressure gauge (1) is not
in the operating range (pointer in the green
portion of the gauge), immediately replace
the extinguisher. Record the inspection
date on the tag provided.
