Will a Fire Extinguisher Explode if Left in a Car?
1 Answers
Portable car fire extinguishers will not explode when placed inside a vehicle. These portable firefighting devices contain chemical agents designed to extinguish fires caused by high temperatures, vehicle malfunctions, or electrical short circuits, thereby ensuring personal safety and minimizing damage. The correct usage method for car fire extinguishers is as follows: 1. Pick up the extinguisher and position yourself upwind of the fire; 2. Invert the extinguisher several times to loosen the dry powder inside; 3. Remove the safety pin, then grip the handle with your left hand and the nozzle with your right hand while holding the extinguisher upright; 4. Aim the nozzle at the base of the flames and discharge the extinguishing agent.
