If the fire involves multiple cooking appliances, what is the recommended course of action?

• A. Isolate the closest appliance and continue cooking
• B. Stand and spray water on all appliances
• C. Move each appliance to a different area
• D. Evacuate if necessary, call for help, and let professionals manage the broad fire zone

Answer: (D)

When multiple cooking appliances are involved, safety is the priority and the fire should be left to trained responders to contain. A broad kitchen fire zone can expand quickly, and attempting to isolate one appliance or move equipment can spread the flames and create dangerous conditions. Water should not be used on a grease fire, and trying to spray or aim at all appliances without proper training is unsafe. Evacuate if needed, call for help, and let professionals manage the broader fire area with the right extinguishing methods.
