Keep out of reach: Check your smoke detector. Replace the batteries if necessary. Put plastic covers in unused electrical outlets. Keep hot appliances and cords out of reach. Keep all electrical appliances out of the bathroom. Don't cook with your child at your feet. Use the back burners on the stove with the pan handles out of reach. Turn your water heater down to 120°f (50°c).

See below : Store all matches and lighters away from children. Use flameless candles & a fireplace screen. Place smoke alarms in every room; check batteries yearly. Have children wear flameless pajamas. Get a fire extinguisher & know how to use it. Don't smoke or overload electrical outlets.
