BRUNEI: Fire Safety Advice


Fire Safety Advice

Check your smoke alarms. They can give you the vital time needed to escape in a fire. Test your smoke alarms regularly (‘press to test’) and never remove the batteries or cover up the detectors.

Don’t overload sockets. Ensure only one plug per socket and don’t join extension leads together (‘daisy chaining’). Always turn off plugs when they are not in use, except those that are designed to be left on, e.g. freezers.

Check your tree lights. Check your tree lights conform to British Standards (BS EN 60598) and are in good working order before use. Ensure you switch off fairy lights and unplug them before you go to bed or leave the house.
