00:00.009 --> 00:03.089
Here at a DC . The month of October is

00:03.099 --> 00:05.266
where we really like to emphasize fire

00:05.269 --> 00:07.349
safety . What we really want to talk

00:07.360 --> 00:10.369
about right now is kitchen fires .

00:10.600 --> 00:13.869
Those are the leading cause of , um ,

00:13.880 --> 00:17.690
fires in homes . If you do have a

00:17.700 --> 00:20.989
oil fire , try to remove the pan from

00:21.000 --> 00:23.760
the heat . If not , then you can always

00:23.770 --> 00:27.069
take a lid and put it on top of the ,

00:27.079 --> 00:30.200
of the fire , uh , as safely as you can

00:30.379 --> 00:32.630
because that will smother the fire , it

00:32.639 --> 00:35.659
will eliminate oxygen , which is one of

00:35.669 --> 00:37.780
the things that the fire needs . Then

00:37.780 --> 00:39.891
as always call your fire department .

00:39.891 --> 00:42.750
Call 911 , get your family out of there .

00:42.759 --> 00:45.330
That's the ultimate priority is life

00:45.340 --> 00:47.900
safety . Call the fire department don't

00:47.909 --> 00:50.187
feel like you have to put the fire out .

00:50.187 --> 00:52.076
The first priority is to get your

00:52.076 --> 00:52.139
family out .
