Fire Safety Tips For The Kitchen
Fire Safety Tips For The Kitchen
- Use a lid to cover a pan or grease fire and turn off the heat. Also, baking soda works.
- Don’t lift a burning pot.
- Don’t use a fire extinguisher or water on a grease fire.
- Never leave food, grease, or cooking oils unattended on the top of the burner.
- Wear short or tightly-fitting sleeves while cooking.
- To avoid spills, keep the pot handles turned inward.
- Establish a child-free zone of three feet around the stove. Also, keep pets away.
- Keep burners away from flammable objects like potholders, towels, and paper or plastic bags.
- Never put metal in a microwave. A fire can be caused by utensils, aluminum foil, or twist-tie wraps.
- Caution should be used for microwaved food and liquid. They can get quite hot.
- When not in use, unplug appliances such as toasters and coffee makers.
- Don’t ever use the oven as storage.
