Before a Fire Using the Fire Extinguisher

 RA 9514 (Fire Code of the Phillipines of 2008 ) Pull the pin

 Aim the hose to the fire while keeping a
safe distance from the fire

Squeeze the lever

Sweeping motion

EDITH

 Exit Drills in the house

 These plan should be made at home and
practice so that all the family members will
know their roles in case of an emergency

NEVER GO BACK

 Remember , once you are already out of the

burning structure
