Connect the water hose interface to the fire hydrant interface. If there is an alarm button, press the emergency alarm button. When the red indicator light on the fire hydrant box is on, send a fire signal to the control room. Turn the fire hydrant handwheel counterclockwise to extinguish the fire.
