YOUR MOTOR HOME
Remember that portable fire extinguishers are appliances
intended for use only by the occupants of a building or area
that is threatened by fire. They are most valuable when used
immediately on small fires. They have a limited amount of
fire-extinguishing material, and therefore must be used
properly so this material is not wasted.
Fire extinguishers are pressurized, mechanical devices. They
must be maintained as outlined and any maintenance
instructions provided with the device so they are ready to
operate properly and safely. Parts or internal chemicals may
deteriorate in time and need replacement. Always follow
maintenance and recharging instructions provided by the fire
extinguisher manufacturer.
Explosive fuel clouds may be present at fuel filling stations.
Instruct occupants on what to do in case of fire, and hold fire
drills periodically.
Maintain proper charge in the fire extinguisher.
If
you experience a fire while traveling, Maintain control of
the vehicle until you can safely stop. Evacuate the vehicle
as quickly and safely as possible.
If you experience a fire while camped, Evacuate the vehicle
as quickly and safely as possible.
Consider the cause and severity of the fire and the risk
involved before trying to put it out. If the fire is major or is
fuel-fed, move away from the side of the LP gas tank, stand
clear of the vehicle and wait for the fire department or other
emergency assistance.
If your motor home is damaged by fire, do not drive or live
in it until you have had it thoroughly examined and repaired.
