@powerexfire ABC TYPE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS THE PASS METHOD - The PASS method is a simple way to remember how to properly use a fire extinguisher. Here's how it works: 1. P - Pull the pin Remove the pin located near the handle to unlock the extinguisher. 2. A - Aim the nozzle Point the nozzle or hose at the base of the fire (not the flames). Targeting the base is crucial to extinguishing the source. 3. S - Squeeze the handle Firmly squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent. 4. S - Sweep side to side Use a sweeping motion at the base of the fire while moving the nozzle side to side. Continue until the fire is out or the extinguisher is empty. Additional Tips: Always ensure your exit is behind you so you can retreat if the fire gets out of control. If the fire doesn’t subside after using the extinguisher, evacuate immediately and call emergency services. Only attempt to extinguish small, contained fires. For larger fires, focus on evacuating safely.
