What it means in practice
A complete fireman’s outfit is kept here: heat-resistant clothing, helmet, boots, SCBA breathing apparatus, lamp and axe. The fire party puts it on.
Legal basis
Annex to IMO resolution A.1116(30) (adopted 05.12.2017), table of fire-fighting equipment markings. Mandatory on ships built from 01.01.2019; older ships may carry signs per resolution A.760(18).

This is not a legal text: in any doubt the current wording of the resolution and regulations decides.
