Fire Prevention
Never smoke in bed, or leave cooking food unattended.
Teach children never to play with matches or lighters! Train
everyone in the home to recognize the alarm pattern, voice
message warning and to leave the home using their escape
plan when it’s heard. Know how to do
“Stop, Drop and Roll” if clothes catch
on fire, and how to crawl low under
smoke. Install and maintain fire extin-
guishers on every level of the home and
in the kitchen, basement and garage.
Know how to use a fire extinguisher
prior to an emergency. Second level
and higher occupied rooms with win-
dows, should have an escape ladder.
Current studies have shown smoke alarms may not awaken
all sleeping individuals, and that it is the responsibility of
individuals in the household that are capable of assisting
others to provide assistance to those who may not be
awakened by the alarm sound, or to those who may be
incapable of safely evacuating the area unassisted.
