Phone In Fires First

In the event of a fire in your home, there’s something you should reach for before the fire extinguisher.  It’s the one item that will do the most good to keep your family safe:  a telephone!  Whenever a fire occurs, get everyone out first, then phone the fire department – use your cell phone or a neighbor’s.  Fire extinguishers are meant to fight only small fires - no bigger around than a trash can.  Fighting too large a fire can be dangerous, and wastes precious escape time for your family.
