How to use
Before use, inspect the extinguisher for visible damage and confirm it is securely mounted and accessible.

Sweep the nozzle side to side to cover the burning area until the flames are extinguished. Keep clear of hot surfaces and electrical hazards while operating; if the fire does not diminish quickly, evacuate the area and call emergency services.
Usage recommendations
Store the extinguisher in an easily accessible location protected from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Regularly check pressure indication (if present), seals and general condition, and follow local regulations for periodic inspection and servicing. Use appropriate personal protection when operating near electrical equipment and ensure the extinguisher type matches the expected fire risks in vehicles or indoor spaces.
