The Department of Prevention and Fire Fighting, Civil Defence and Development Cooperation, who heads Remigio Lopez, offers citizens a series of recommendations to prevent fires and to act if there is any.

In terms of prevention, the recommendations are:

At Mount

The mountain is smoking, do not throw cigarette butts or anything that could be a source of heat through the windows of the car.

Keep the mountain clean and especially trash heaps.

Take them to a container or a trash can.

No bonfires or cooking, and if you have to do so only in areas that are authorized.

Do not park vehicles with engine warm in areas where weeds or dry grass.

Carry and if possible a mobile phone.

Work with Fire Services, with the Forest and in general with the authorities.

Warn if someone ignores the recommendations made known to professionals in the prevention and suppression.

Home

Not bad electrical connections.

No power lines saturated with excess consumption of cold appliances if they are not prepared to do so by a qualified technician.

Avoid using multiple plugs.

Do not leave the TV on or in standby mode.

Do not leave appliances plugged in radio.

Do not use electric meter boxes and storage rooms.

Frequent cleaning of smoke hood and fireplaces.

Do not handle flammable sprays or liquids (paints, varnishes, solvents, etc..) Cigarette in the mouth or near a heat source.

Periodically review the gas pipeline.

Maintain unobstructed escape routes and exit doors.

Do not leave home, leaving something in the kitchen fire, nor with appliances plugged in (washer, dishwasher, etc..).

In the event that a fire occurs, from the SEIS recommends the following actions:

At Mount

Urgently advise the 112 or 080.

Away from the fire and smoke in the opposite direction to their progress.

Do not seek refuge in deep valleys and run downhill

If the fire reaches you position yourself in areas already burned and always behind the prevailing wind.

Home

Are you surprised by the fire in the house closing the door out

Smoke and heat rise.

If necessary get down and flows through the lower areas.

Before opening a door to make sure it is not hot

If you turn the clothes lie down and roll.

Never design a portable fire extinguisher to a person engulfed in flames.

The most important thing is to throw the floor so that the flames did not reach the head.

Once out of the house does not re-enter.

Raise the alarm to the neighbors and the 112 or 080.

Use the nearest stairs but never lifts.

Keep calm whenever possible and ensure the flight that are not people behind and especially children (who are not hiding in closets or under the bed).
