SAFETY ADVICE IN CASE OF A CHIP-PAN FIRE
In the event of a chip pan fire or any other pan fire.
1. TURN OFF THE COOKER APPLIANCE AT THE
WALL SWITCH.
2. COVER THE PAN WITH A FIRE BLANKET OR
DAMP CLOTH, this will smother the flames and
extinguish the fire.
3. LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60
MINUTES BEFORE MOVING IT. Injuries are often
caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing outside
with it.
NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT
A PAN FIRE as the force
of the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over.
Never use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.
