If the smoke alarm goes off, roll out of
bed and crawl to the door. Feel the door with the back of
your hand. If the door feels cool, open the door slowly.
If you do not see fire or smoke, close the door behind you
and proceed outside to the family meeting place. Remember,
if you have to escape through smoke, CRAWL
LOW AND GO. If the door feels hot, turn
on the light, keep the door closed and go to the window.
If you are able to exit safely through the window, do so.
If the window is too high to exit safely, open the window
and holler for help. You should consider buying a fire escape
ladder.
Once you are outside, go to a family meeting place. Do
not go back inside for any reason. Use the neighbor's
phone to call 911. |
