- Make sure that there is a proper fire extinguisher in your house.
- Do not leave the match until it is completely extinguished.
- Do not leave the children in the kitchen or nearby hot and burning materials or electrical power sources.
- Do not wear flowing dresses or nylon mixed wears in the kitchen in order to avoid catching fire.
- When a fire breaks out in the oil pan, avoid pouring water into the pan as it ignites the fire and cover the burning pan by placing the nearest thick lid on the pan or cover it with a fire blanket.
- When a fire breaks out in the trash bin, cover the burning trash bin immediately with a damp cloth in order to prevent oxygen from igniting the fire.
- When you smell gas odor, immediately open all doors and windows to reduce concentration of leaked gas. Do not use a burning matchstick near a gas cylinder to locate the place of leakage and avoid switching on the lights and exhaust fan for ventilation as they may serve as points of ignition to the highly inflammable gas and an electric spark from the switches of a light or a fan is sufficient to ignite the leaked gas.
- Make sure to put the gas cylinders in a cool and open place to get it under control easily when necessary and do not expose it to the sun.
