Did you know Fire Prevention Week is October 4-10, 2020? With more remote learning going on at home and more people staying in during the Pandemic, it is important to follow these fire safety tips:
*Leaving devices charging overnight while placed under your pillow, on your bed, or under papers can cause a fire. Smartphones should be charged in a location that allows for adequate ventilation, so they do not overheat.
*It is best to charge your phone in the daytime when you can monitor it.
*Buy and use devices that are listed by a qualified testing laboratory.
*Make sure with all electronics you are following all manufacturer’s instruction.
*Only use the battery and charging cords that are designed for your specific device.
*Never leave food unattended on the stove or in the oven.
*Keep towels and paper products away from a stove.
*Always keep a lid nearby when cooking, if a small grease fire starts you can quickly slide the lid over the pan and turn off the burner.
