For the specific kitchen emergency scenarios refer to PERFORM s Nutrition Suite SOP (PC-SOP-NS-001). Briefly, there are several steps before use of the Safety First fire suppression system: firstly preliminary containment of fire by putting lids on pots, keeping oven doors closed or using the fire blanket affixed in entryway to the Teaching Kitchen. If these measures do not contain the fire, proceed to the use of the Safety First fire suppression system, as described below. In the event of a fire, using the system in the following order is very important to ensure the fire will be extinguished properly and to minimize the risk of injury to the users: 1. Once a fire is ignited on a cooking apparatus, evacuate the room and direct people to the nearest emergency exit; 2. Request someone to activate the fire alarm system and contact Security (x 3717) to inform them of the situation. It is important that steps #3 and #4 are done per team of 2 persons.

Once the extinguishment of the fire is completed, evacuate the room and report to Security at the entrance of the building, if they did not show up on site yet. After a fire, an inspection of the system and the refilling of the cylinders must take place. If step #2 is fulfilled properly, Security will notify the Fire Department of the situation. Upon receiving the approval of the Fire Department, the Security Department will contact the contractor maintaining the systems to request the replacement of the cylinders and the reactivation of the systems. The cooking apparatus shall not be used until the Security Department confirms the fire extinguishing systems have been inspected and reactivated. In the meantime, the Service Centre (x2400) should be contacted to clean the room and the apparatus. PC-POD-NS-002-v03 Printed copies are not controlled. Page 6 of 6
