If your smoke detector goes off, you smell smoke or you see a fire in the building, take the following steps:
- remain calm and get out
- drop to the floor to avoid smoke and fumes. Crawl to safety
- if you see smoke under the door, find another way out
- feel the door with the back of your hand before you open it. If it is hot, find another way out
- if your clothes catch on fire, STOP where you are, DROP to the ground, and ROLL over and over to smother the flames
- call 1-1-1 from a safe location
- if you are trapped in a burning building, stay near a window and close to the floor
- If possible, signal for help.
