SWITCH OFF, SWITCH OFF, SWITCH OFF

IF CONFUSED AND NOT TRAINED, PRESS THE FIRE ALARM SWITCH AROUND YOU (THE SMALL SQUARE RED BOX WITH A GLASS ON IT)

IF TRAINED, USE A CO2 or DCP.  Water might be dangerous in some cases.  A fire blanket is a good option to always have at hand.  DO NOT USE ANYTHING IF YOU ARE CONFUSED.

Ask people to go away from the scene.  Inform Security if you can for more assistance.

1. turn off electricity (main braker)

2. treat as a solid fire (powder/CO2 or water)

3. dont over use the extinguishing materail more than the fire size.
