This alerts the building occupants of the hazard and is a first line approach to dousing the fire. Evacuate and let the fire department do the rest. If you have been properly trained you may choose to use the fire extinguisher. Do so only after pulling the fire alarm pull station to begin evacuation of the school. Use the fire extinguisher by applying the PASS method. Pull the pin, Aim at the base of the fire, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep back and forth until the fire is extinguished. Make certain you are using the correct type of fire extinguisher for the type of fire. You will learn the appropriate types of extinguishers upon taking fire extinguisher training. Good luck!
