Things to know

This is a single-use extinguisher and should be replaced after any discharge. Check the pressure gauge regularly and follow all manufacturer inspection, storage, replacement and disposal instructions.

It is intended for small, contained fires. Always keep a safe exit behind you, call 911, and leave immediately if a fire is spreading or cannot be controlled safely. This multipurpose ABC extinguisher is not a substitute for an extinguisher specifically rated for commercial cooking-oil and grease fires.
