Cook with Caution to Prevent Home Fires

Most kitchen fires are caused by unattended cooking. To help prevent home fires that start in the kitchen, here are a few tips you might find helpful.

Stay in the kitchen. It’s tempting to walk away and multitask but when cooking, frying, grilling, or broiling food, it’s safest to stay in the kitchen.
Turn off the stove if you must leave the room, even if it’s only for a short time.
If you have young children around, it’s safest to use the stove’s back burners whenever possible.
Keep your children (and pets) at least 3 feet away from the stove.
Check regularly. Be sure to check on what you are cooking, especially when simmering, boiling, baking, or roasting food. Use a timer to remind you of what is cooking.
Pay attention to what you are cooking. Different dishes need various preparations and cooking/baking temperatures so be sure to keep alert when in the kitchen.
