Question

The p.A.S.S. Technique on a fire extinguisher stands for ________.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "Pull, Aim, Squeeze, and Sweep".

Explanation:

Be using the P.A.S.S. method to fire the extinguisher beyond its optimal range. Walk away from such an abandoned fire in case it flares up further. Disperse instantly if the extinguisher is flat and the fire isn't even out.

• Pin: Take out the screw. There's a little pin that stops the fire extinguisher from unintentionally would be used, all you need to do is take that out and proceed towards the next stage.
• Aim: Point the fire extinguisher nozzle at the root of the explosion.
• Squeeze: Compress the trigger from which you just pulled the puck. Attempt to compress it gently, so it's as flexible as possible.
• Swipe: Swipe from edge to edge to clear any areas where the fire might have dispersed.
