You'll need to read it careful. It says:
If an engine fire warning light is NOT illuminated, but a fire indication exists or a fire is reported in or near an engine, discharge BOTH fire bottles.
As for your question in regards to evacuate or not, it is a tough call. You need to give it careful thought wether to evacuate or not, when in doubt, evacuate.
As Boeing points out, use all relevant sources to confirm fire is out...Make sure the airplane is parked in a position, that if the fire relights, it is on the downwind side....
