Fire Safety
IN CASE OF FIRE, HAVE A PLAN READY!
KNOW YOUR WAY OUT!
Immediately after you arrive at your room, examine the possible escape routes available to you. Walk down the hallway and find the fire exits closest to your room. If fire occurs, never use the elevator as an exit. Test the potential exits you would use. Make sure the doors open and stairways are clear of obstruction. Find the nearest fire alarm pull station. Examine it, and be sure you know how to use it – even in the dark. Make a mental map of lines between your room and the fire alarm pull station and the exits. Count doors and note other features along your path in case the hallway should be dark or filled with smoke. You may have to crawl along the wall to the exit door and the fire alarm pull station.
KNOW YOUR ROOM LAYOUT
Knowing the layout of your room may be very important to you. In case smoke or flames block your escape, you may have to stay in your room and await rescue.
Your chances of surviving a hotel fire are often better if you remain in your room protected from smoke and gases, rather than trying to make a hazardous escape. Start by placing your room key near your bed so you can find it easily, if necessary. You may need your key to regain entry to your room if your escape
route is blocked by smoke or flames. Test the windows. Do they open? If so, how? If they do not open, do not attempt to force them open. The window may provide an alternate escape route if the hall is not usable. Jumping or dropping down from above the second floor usually results in serious injury and should not be attempted.
IF FIRE BREAKS OUT, TAKE THE PROPER ACTION!
If a fire breaks out in your room, get out of your room and close the door tightly behind you to keep the hall free of smoke and flames. Activate the nearest fire alarm fire station. If possible, you should report the fire to the Fire Department and then the Hotel Operator. In the event the fire breaks out in another part of the building, you may be aroused by the fire alarm signal, voice announcements over
a PA system, shouting in the corridor, a phone call, or by the sounds of the sirens outside.
HERE’S WHAT YOU SHOULD DO ...
1. If your room key is handy, take it and head for the door. Stay low, smoke and deadly gases rise. The freshest air is nearest the floor.
2. Feel the door for heat with the back of your hand. Upon touching, if the door or handle is hot, do not open it. If you do not feel heat from the door, open it slowly. Be ready to slam shut if necessary.
HERE’S WHAT YOU SHOULD DO … continued
1. Check the corridor. If it looks clear and passable, walk to the nearest exit. If smoke is visible, crawl to make your escape. Close the door behind you as you leave. If smoke is present, stay close to the wall as you crawl to the exit. Count the doors as you go. If the primary escape route is blocked, use an alternate one or return to your room. Do not use the elevator.
2. Walk down the exit stairwell to ground level and remain as calm as you can and hold the handrail as you descend for guidance, and to guard against being knocked down by other occupants. The least preferred method of exiting is to turn around and go up to the roof. If exit to the roof is possible, signs on the wall at the floor landings will help indicate where this can be done.
IF YOU MUST STAY IN YOUR ROOM DUE TO DOOR HEAT OR SMOKE AND/OR FLAMES IN THE CORRIDOR
HERE’S WHAT TO DO ...
1. Wet down towels and sheets to block the smoke entry. Place them around doors and cracks to prevent smoke from seeping in. Cover your nose and mouth with
a wet cloth to cut down on the amount of smoke you may inhale. Also, turn off the heat to prevent smoke entry through the ventilating system.
2. Fill the tub with water. The ready supply of water might be used for fighting the fire. Use your ice bucket or wastebasket to bail water.
3. If the phone works, call the fire department, and tell them where you are. You may also be able to signal fire fighters by hanging a bed sheet out the window if your windows are open, or by waving the sheet from the inside of your window, if your windows do not open.
4. If smoke is evident in your room, remove the drapes and curtains and open the window, if possible, to obtain fresh air. Do not open the windows at all if smoke or flames are visible just outside the windows as smoke may be pulled into the room from outside.
Do not try to climb down sheets. Jumping or dropping down from above the second floor usually results in serious injury. You are usually better off staying in your room if the room is above the second floor.
5. If all else fails, you may be forced to exit your room. If you cannot stay any longer in your room, you may have to try to make the best exit. Remember to crawl low in smoke and try to remain calm.
