Fire Prevention - Kidde 10SCO User Manual

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 extinguishers 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 windows 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.
