Fire WhenProceduresyoucheck in:

• Find the fire exits in your corridor, and make sure they are not locked or blocked. Count the doorways and examine other features between your room and the exit so that you can find your way out in an emergency.

• Learn the layout of your room and know how to unlock your door in the dark.

• Put your room key close to where you sleep so you can find it easily. You will need the key to get back into your room if smoke or fire blocks your exit.

If the room door is not hot or there is no smoke in the hall:

• Check if the hall is clear of smoke. If it is clear, it is probably safe to leave your room. Collect your key, close the door securely behind you and walk to the exit.

• Walk down to the ground level holding onto the handrail to protect yourself from being knocked down by someone in a panic. If you encounter smoke or fire on a lower level, turn around and walk up to cleaner air, go to the roof if it is accessible or use another exit.

If the room door is hot or there is smoke in the hall:

• Do not panic. You can stay in your room and still survive a fire.

• Fill the shower with water for wetting towels, sheets, etc. The shower water might also be needed for cooling down the walls. An ice bucket or wastebasket can be used for bailing water.

• Seal the door from smoke with wet paper towels, cloth towels, tissues, sheets, etc. Cover or block vents, too.

• In spite of your efforts, if smoke still enters your room, make a tent over your head with a blanket or sheet at a slightly opened window and breathe air that is free of smoke. If the windows do not open, you may have to break one out with a chair or drawer, but only do this as a last resort. If smoke can enter your room from outside the window, do not break or open it. Once you break the window, you will not be able to close it.

If a fire starts in your room:

• Evacuate your room immediately. Collect your key and close the door securely.

• Sound the fire alarm nearest to your room door and notify your neighbors as you leave.
