Safety Measures In Case of Fire
§Stay calm
§Feel all doors before opening
§ -Don’t open if they’re hot
§Close doors behind you
§Take your keys
§Sound alarm, alert hallmates
§Get out and stay out
§Leave all your other belongings behind!
If a fire should break out in your building, stay calm.
Feel all doors before opening and don’t open them if they’re hot. Get out immediately, alerting others in the building if possible as you go.
If you can open them, close your door and any others behind you as you leave, to deprive the fire of more oxygen.
If your door is one that automatically locks behind you, take your keys, in case you are trapped and have to return to your room.
On your way to the nearest stairway exit, pull the alarm if it’s not already sounding and alert your hall-mates.
Once you’re outside, stay out. Leave all your belongings behind. Never go back into a building where there’s a fire, because it can spread rapidly and unexpectedly.
