Unified <br /> 7GFiYS. <br /> Emergency Evacuation Plan <br /> OVERVIEW <br /> Fire <br /> The company maintains general fire protection for the facility through a supervised <br /> sprinkler system, portable fire extinguishers, and fire hoses, where applicable. Periodic <br /> training is provided to specific personnel in the proper operation of the fire <br /> extinguishers. Fire extinguishers are inspected monthly to ensure that they are in good <br /> operating order. <br /> Fire hoses are for use by professional fire fighters only. Employees are not <br /> authorized to use the fire hoses. If an attempt to extinguish the fire using an <br /> extinguisher fails, immediately evacuate the building and notify supervision. <br /> Fire Extinguishers -Type and Use <br /> How to Use: <br /> P - Pull ring pin <br /> A-Aim at base fire <br /> S - Squeeze the lever <br /> Ordinary Flammable Elatlncal <br /> A- Sweep from side to side Combustibles Liquids Equipment <br /> WHERE TO USE: <br /> It is natural for a person to use the extinguisher located nearest to a fire, making it <br /> essential that the correct type and size be placed in close proximity to a potential <br /> hazard. Most fire extinguisher nameplates have either the letter or picture symbols <br /> below. Anyone who might be expected to use a fire extinguisher should be familiar with <br /> the letter or picture symbols identifying the types of fire on which it may be used (see <br /> symbols above). The newer picture symbols use the International Sign Symbols <br /> (diagonal red slash) to indicate a potential hazard if the extinguisher is used on that <br /> particular type of fire. Absence of a type of symbol means only that the unit is not <br /> recommended as particularly effective for that class, but not dangerous if used in error. <br /> REVISED December 31,2007 PAGE <br />
