When using aluminum foil, safety precautions include: 1) Handling foil carefully to avoid sharp edges that can cause cuts. 2) Not using foil with sharp or pointed objects to prevent punctures and potential ingestion of foil pieces. 3) Avoiding contact with open flames or high heat sources as aluminum foil can melt and cause fires. 4) Not using foil for cooking acidic foods, as the acid can react with the aluminum, potentially releasing harmful substances. 5) Ensuring that the foil does not come into contact with electrical components or wires to prevent short circuits. 6) Washing hands after handling foil to avoid accidental ingestion of aluminum particles. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for safe use.
