A fire has started at 101 Flintstone Lane! How will everyone in the house know there is a fire?
By the time anyone in the family smells smoke, the fire could be too big for the people upstairs to get down the stairs. This is a job for Super Sniffer Blaster Bleepers, your life-saving smoke alarms!
Put smoke alarms in several places in your home:
Test smoke alarms each month to make sure they are working, and so you’ll know what they sound like when they go off. Replace old batteries with brand new ones at least once a year. Replace smoke alarms at least every 10 years. Keep smoke alarms dust free. Run the vacuum cleaner attachment over and around the alarms to clean away the dust. Each bedroom. Just outside all bedroom areas. At least one smoke alarm on each floor of the house. Near the kitchen, but more than 20 feet away, so that cooking smoke and steam don’t set it off.
Quick! Cut out each of the smoke alarms. Read the Super Sni er Blaster Bleeper’s Smoke Alarm Tips to nd out where you should put each smoke alarm!
