Kitchen Fires
More than half of accidental fires at home are started by cooking. Many kitchen fires happen when people are not paying attention or they leave things unattended.If a pan catches on fire, don't move it because it will be really hot. Turn off the heat if it's safe to do so.Also, don’t lean over the pan to reach the controls, don’t use a fire extinguisher on a pan of oil because the force of the extinguisher can spread the fire, never use water on chip pan fires because it will cause a fireball, use a fire blanket or a lid to smother the flames if it safe to do so. When done get out and stay out and call 999.
