滅火器的 PASS 原則：P (Pull) 拉開插銷、C (Aim) 對準火源根部、S (Squeeze) 壓下壓把、S (Sweep) 左右掃射。對準火源根部（Base）是重點，直接噴火苗通常無效。
The PASS sequence for operating a fire extinguisher is: P (Pull) the pin; A (Aim) at the base of the fire; S (Squeeze) the handle; and S (Sweep) from side to side. Aiming at the base of the fire is essential, because spraying directly at the flames is usually ineffective.
