- Phuza uviniga uma ugeza noma uhamba ngesikebhe ukufaka isicelo sokubamba
- Gcwalisa ngisho neziqu ezincane ngeviniga
- Ungabuyeli emanzini uze uqiniseke ukuthi awuguli (ulinde imizuzu engu-30)
- Uma ungabaza noma usizi, funa usizo lwe-ASAP. Kungase kudingeke uye esibhedlela ukuze uthole isheke eliphelele futhi, uma kudingeka, ukwelashwa.
