If you choose to use a fire extinguisher on a small, containable fire, always contact 911 or building management/security FIRST. Never attempt to fight a fire alone, even a small one.
Never put the fire between you and your escape route. The nearest exit should be behind you so you can escape immediately if needed.
Never put yourself in danger. Property can be replaced – you cannot.
If you do elect to use an extinguisher, PASS IT:
