What requirement applies to non-automatic fire-fighting equipment?

• A. Non-Auto Equipment Must Be Simple to Use and Signed
• B. Safety Signage
• C. Automatic Alarms
• D. Maintenance

Answer: (A)

Non-automatic firefighting equipment depends on people to take action, so it must be straightforward to operate and clearly identified where it is. If a fire extinguisher or other manual gear is simple to use, anyone can deploy it quickly without confusion; if it’s signed or labeled, it’s easy to locate under stress. These features minimize hesitation and ensure effective initial response. While safety signage and maintenance are important in general, the specific requirement for non-automatic equipment is that it is simple to use and clearly signed. Automatic alarms relate to detection and actuation, not to manual firefighting gear.
