Fire Safety

Danger!
Used properly, this range constitutes a reliable and convenient equipment to produce a wide range of delicious food time after time after time. However, there is always the potential of the superheated oil, shortening, or fat to cause a grease fi re, and the instinctive responses of many people—to use water or to move the fi re—can greatly worsen the fi re’s damage and the risk of injury.

• ALWAYS have a safe work area and ALWAYS be prepared. ALWAYS train EVERY operator on how to most safely handle a grease fi re so they are prepared if one occurs. Consult with your local fi re department or police department to see if professional training is available in your area.

• NEVER use water on an oil fi re.

• NEVER use wet towels or other objects on an oil fi re.

• NEVER move the fi re or splash the burning oil.

• DO warn everyone nearby of the danger. They should evacuate the area in any orderly way.

• DO stop providing additional air. Turn off ANY exhaust hood or fan or turn off its circuit breaker.

• DO cut off the fire’s access to oxygen IF you can do so safely. Cover the tank with its lid or any similar large metal covering, but DO NOT throw anything in a way that might cause burning oil to splash. (ONLY use a fire blanket for this purpose if it is specifically rated to safely handle grease fi res. Many are not.)

• DO use your fi re extinguisher IF the fi re is NOT yet contained under a cover. If it is contained, allow time for it to die out but keep the extinguisher ready. If you need to use your fire extinguisher, use it from a safe distance, and be careful that its pressure does NOT cause the burning oil to splash.

• Baking soda or salt can be also used to stop small fi res or nearly contained fi res but NEVER apply either one in a way that might splash the burning oil.

• NEVER use fl our or other fi ne powders. Despite their similar appearance, most of them ARE highly  amiable at the oil’s temperature and will only worsen the fire.
