Cooking Safety | Part 2

By the Lakeland Fire Department

Always cook with caution! But if you happen to find yourself in a situation with a grease cooking fire, what do you do?

?If the fire is on the stovetop, smother the flames by sliding a lid over the pan and turning off the burner. Leave the pan covered until it is completely cooled.

?Never pour water on a grease fire.

?For an oven fire, turn off the heat and keep the oven door closed.

?If you have any doubt about fighting a small fire just get out! When you leave, close the door behind you to help contain the fire. Call 9-1-1from outside the home.
