            (a)         if there is a secure and sealable door fitted to the appliance — sealed from the open air by the door; or

            (b)         in any other case — sufficiently contained to prevent the spread of sparks or a fire.

        (4)         After the catering activity is completed, if any burning solid fuel (for example, coals, briquettes or wood) in an appliance involved in the catering activity is to be transported from the catering site, the fuel must be completely extinguished before it is transported.
