Can Fire Extinguishers Be Placed in the Car Trunk?
1 Answers
Fire extinguishers can be placed in the car trunk. More detailed information is as follows: 1. There are usually three places to place a car fire extinguisher: first, under the driver's seat; second, under the passenger seat; third, in the trunk. 2. The fire extinguisher must be securely fixed in the car because the vehicle's jolting can easily cause accidents with the extinguisher. It is best to place the fire extinguisher in the rear part of the trunk, so that even if an accident occurs, the harm to the people in the car can be reduced. Car fire extinguishers, like those used in daily life, have an expiration date. Those that exceed the expiration date should be replaced promptly. After 5 years from the date of manufacture, even if unused, they must be sent to a professional maintenance unit for inspection to ensure the extinguisher's safety and reliability. 2. When purchasing a small fire extinguisher, in addition to paying attention to the appearance, you should also ask the merchant for the product qualification certificate, quality guarantee, and user manual, so that you can hold them accountable if problems arise. Regularly check the fire extinguisher's safety pin, whether the cylinder is deformed or rusted, and whether the nozzle is clogged with oil or dirt. Also, frequently wipe off dust and clear the nozzle to keep it unobstructed.
