operation
To operate a fire extinguisher, remember the word: P.A.S.S.
P ull the pin. Hold the extinguisher with the nozzle pointing away from you, and release the
locking mechanism.
Aim low. Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire.
Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly.
Sweep the nozzle from side-to-side until the fire is out.
ALWAYS keep your back to an open exit in case you need to escape quickly when using a
fire extinguisher. If the fire cannot be contained, evacuate immediately before the room is
contaminated by smoke.
Most all fire extinguishers operate similarly to each other, but they are produced in various
sizes and types.
Disposal
BEFORE dispensing your used fire extinguisher, check the local laws. To locate the law on
dispensing, call the local sanitation, fire or environmental protection department.
EMERGENcY EGRESS WIND oW
During an emergency, if the door suddenly becomes blocked, then you should use the sec-
ondary exit called Emergency Egress Window. Every person in the coach should be aware
of how to correctly operate the egress window in case of an emergency. The egress window
might take up more space in the window. Each egress window has a noticeable sticker with
a red handle.
