Answer:

C) Spray straight and steadily into the flames

Step-by-step explanation:

A fire extinguisher is a device that is used to control a small fire as it contains an agent that is discharged to extinguish it. There is a procedure that needs to be followed to use the fire extinguisher that includes: pull the pin, aim the hose at the base of the fire and squeeze the trigger to discharge the agent. The option that is not a step in the procedure for a fire extinguisher is spray straight and steadily into the flames because hitting the top of the flames will not be effective, you have to aim to the base.
