of interest to children over the unit. Children climbing to reach

multipurpose dry chemical or foam type extinguisher. Let fat cool
before attempting to handle it. Wipe up spillovers immediately.
10. If you are “flaming” liquors or other spirits under an exhaust,
TURN THE FAN OFF .. The draft could cause the flames to spread
out of control.
