00:02.220 --> 00:04.140
- I'm Ed Chavez and along with members

00:04.140 --> 00:05.870
of your JBLM fire department,

00:05.870 --> 00:07.040
we're here to announce a change

00:07.040 --> 00:09.300
for Fire Prevention Week this year.

00:09.300 --> 00:11.260
And, due to COVID-19,

00:11.260 --> 00:13.750
in order to keep everybody safe,

00:13.750 --> 00:16.920
we're gonna do Fire Prevention
Week virtually this year.

00:16.920 --> 00:19.330
You'll still receive the same
information that you receive

00:19.330 --> 00:22.180
if you visited us at the PX or the BX,

00:22.180 --> 00:24.590
and that doesn't mean
we're not there for you.

00:24.590 --> 00:27.050
Remember, if you have an emergency,

00:27.050 --> 00:28.583
we're only a phone call away.

00:32.730 --> 00:35.950
We encourage you to follow state, local,

00:35.950 --> 00:38.920
and Command guidance on wearing your mask,

00:38.920 --> 00:41.440
maintaining your social distancing,

00:41.440 --> 00:43.500
and for you to remain safe.

00:43.500 --> 00:45.910
Together, we will get through this.

00:45.910 --> 00:48.930
Here's a short video to
assist you in preventing fires

00:48.930 --> 00:51.163
and maintaining a fire-free environment.

00:52.040 --> 00:52.873
Thank you.

00:56.950 --> 00:57.783
Stay safe.

00:58.930 --> 01:00.073
Kitchen fires.

01:00.950 --> 01:03.773
We recommend that you have
an ABC fire extinguisher.

01:05.200 --> 01:06.990
Never leave cooking unattended.

01:06.990 --> 01:08.320
If you can't pay attention,

01:08.320 --> 01:09.870
if you can't be in the kitchen,

01:11.110 --> 01:12.860
do not start cooking.

01:12.860 --> 01:15.150
If for some reason you have a grease fire,

01:15.150 --> 01:18.750
make sure you have the pan lid handy.

01:18.750 --> 01:20.300
You wanna cover it,

01:20.300 --> 01:21.910
shut the heat off,

01:21.910 --> 01:24.070
but do not attempt to move the pan

01:24.070 --> 01:26.290
and make sure you call 911.

01:26.290 --> 01:28.000
If you don't have the lid,

01:28.000 --> 01:31.000
baking soda, not baking
powder should be used

01:31.000 --> 01:35.052
and never ever use water on a grease fire.

01:35.052 --> 01:39.230
(thumping suspense music)

01:39.230 --> 01:40.850
Okay, we have a grease fire.

01:40.850 --> 01:42.770
With my lid, I'll cover the pan.

01:42.770 --> 01:44.530
Thus, eliminating the oxygen.

01:44.530 --> 01:47.690
We will shut the power off,
eliminating the heat source.

01:47.690 --> 01:50.040
Now, the mistake people
make, removing the lid.

01:51.510 --> 01:53.220
We have re-ignition.

01:53.220 --> 01:54.590
Now using baking soda,

01:54.590 --> 01:57.130
you sprinkle profusely over the top,

01:57.130 --> 02:01.760
thus eliminating the oxygen
and putting the fire out.

02:01.760 --> 02:05.310
Okay, I've provided you
the tools to be successful,

02:05.310 --> 02:08.510
and you always call 911
in the event of emergency.

02:08.510 --> 02:10.150
If you have any further questions,

02:10.150 --> 02:12.203
please give us a call at this number.
