2. Aim the fire extinguisher nozzle at the base of the
fire. Do NOT spray at the smoke or flames.
3. Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing
agent.
4. Sweep the fire from side to side until the fire
appears to be out.

recharged or replaced immediately. For detailed
information, refer to the fire extinguisher manual

After the fire is out, beware of flashback. Flashback occurs
when flammable vapors from combustible liquids spread
back to the ignition source and reignite the fire.
Function
Fire extinguishers are designed to put out a fire in its
initial stages. Once a fire is out of control and you cannot
get within 10 feet, it is too big to fight with your
extinguisher.
Do not discharge your fire 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 on your fire
extinguisher. If it loses pressure, the dry chemical will not
effectively discharge.
Record the inspection date on the tag provided.
