🪔 Celebrate Diwali safely! Keep candles and diyas on sturdy surfaces, away from flammable materials, children and pets. Never leave flames unattended, check decorative lights and ensure smoke alarms are working. ✨ Let the light shine, not the risk of fire. Happy Diwali!

Carbon monoxide (CO) is silent. Your alarm isn’t.
Know the warning signal:
4 beeps. Pause. 4 beeps. Pause.
A sounding CO alarm means CO may be present. Know the sound. Know what to do. Test monthly.
Let safety be heard!

Always move your vehicle fully outdoors before warming it up.
