Safety tips

There are steps that you can take immediately to guard against fire in electrical appliances:

• If you think there may be a problem with an electrical appliance that you own always unplug it and contact the manufacturer or a qualified appliance repair technician.
• Fit a minimum of one smoke alarm per floor and fit enough alarms to cover all areas where a fire could start, making sure they are tested regularly.
• Plan how you would get out in the event of a fire in your home, find out how to create an escape plan for your home.
• If a fire does start, don’t try to fight the fire. Get out, stay out and call 999.
• Make sure white goods are not positioned in escape routes so if they do catch fire they won’t block your way out.
