What action should not be taken with the Fire Containment Bag?

The Fire Containment Bag is designed to safely contain and suppress a fire that may occur in the cabin, specifically with regard to electronic devices. It is essential to understand that the bag should not be left in use during cabin service. This is primarily to ensure safety and efficiency; cabin service often requires movement and access to various items by the crew and passengers, which could lead to misunderstandings or mistakes regarding the handling of a potentially hazardous situation.

Keeping the bag in use while attending to other cabin activities could distract crew members from monitoring the state of the bag or responding adequately if an emergency arises. Furthermore, it could also result in other items being inadvertently placed near or onto the bag, which may complicate matters. Proper protocol requires that the Fire Containment Bag should only be actively in use when there is a specific and confirmed threat that necessitates its deployment. This approach ensures that the crew is prepared to handle emergencies effectively without adding unnecessary risk during normal cabin operations.
