- · Never "Barbecue" or grill indoors on a smoker or barbecue grill. These devices are intended for outdoor use only.
- · Keep your grill at least 30 feet from any structures - for residents of apartments, condominiums and townhouses, it's the law. For the rest of us, it's just an excellent idea.
- · Don't leave food unattended on the stove.
- · Keep dangling clothing away from burners.
- · Turn handles on pots and pans so that they can't be knocked off the stove accidently.
- · Keep appliances clean and free of grease and crumbs.
- · Make sure your stove is turned off and small appliances unplugged before leaving the house or going to bed.
