hey
Carbon Dioxide fire extinguishers extinguish fire by taking away the oxygen element of the fire triangle and also be removing the heat with a very cold discharge. Carbon dioxide can be used on Class B & C fires. They are usually ineffective on Class A fires.
The carbon dioxide is also very cold as it comes out of the extinguisher, so it cools the fuel as well. CO2s may be ineffective at extinguishing Class A fires because they may not be able to displace enough oxygen to successfully put the fire out.

we need oxygen to burn /fire any object .
if oxygen is used their is a chance of increasing of fire
so,if we use carbondioxide then the carbon dioxide ions catch the ions of oxygen. so that oxygen will not be allowed to burn.
so, the fire can be controlled.
