16 How to use a fire blanket Δ You use a fire blanket to put out small fires, e.g. if a coffee maker, saucepan or television catches fire. You can also use a fire blanket to wrap around people whose clothes are on fire. Δ Grip the fire blanket by the corners. Hold the fire blanket between yourself and the fire; protect your hands. 16 Δ Place the fire blanket gently on top of the burning object.
17 Δ The fire blanket must be large enough, e.g. 120X180 cm. Δ Hang the fire blanket and its bags on the kitchen wall. Δ Replace the blanket if it is damaged.

18 In case of an emergency, call CALL THE EMERGENCY NUMBER YOURSELF, IF YOU CAN It is important that the emergency number is called by the person affected by the fire or someone at the scene of the accident. This person will have the information that the officer on duty will need to decide what sort of help to send. If someone else makes the call it may take longer for help to arrive. 2. SAY WHAT HAS HAPPENED The emergency duty officer will ask the caller for information about what has happened. This way he or she can, if necessary, send the right sort of help. 3. GIVE YOUR PRECISE ADDRESS AND MUNICIPALITY The same addresses exist in different municipalities. It is important to give the name of the town or municipality in which you live, in addition to the address. 4. ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU ARE ASKED The questions will not delay the arrival of help. In urgent cases the officer on duty will have already called the officers coming to help you while you are still speaking on the phone. 18
19 5. ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN The officer on duty may give you instructions. It is important to follow them. 6. HANG UP ONLY WHEN YOU ARE TOLD TO If you end the call too soon it may delay the arrival of help. When you are told to, hang up. Don t use the phone. The officer on duty or someone arriving at the scene may call and ask for more information about what happened. Tell them how to get there. Call again if the situation changes. Emergency number
