SayPro What should I be concerned with on my escape route?

  • Before opening a door, test it to make sure there is not a fire on the other side. To do this:
  • Reach up as high as you can and touch the hinge, the knob and the space between the door and its frame with the back of your hand.
  • If the door is warm, do not open the door. Use an alternative exit.
  • If the door is cool, open it carefully and be ready to slam it shut if heat or smoke rushes in.

If you have a disability provident panic. If you cannot escape:

  • Close all doors between you and the fire and smoke
  • Stuff towels or other cloth around doors and cover all vents to keep smoke out
  • Call the fire department, report the fire and tell them exactly where you are trapped
  • While waiting for rescue signal from a window, if possible, by waving a light-coloured cloth

noting you from doing this, return to a room away from the fire and call the fire department

  • Drop gently to the ground
  • Cover your face with your hands and roll over and over to smother the flames
  • If you have a disability preventing you from doing this, try smothering the flames with a fire-resistant blanket or rug, or have someone else do it for you
  • Do not try to smother flames with your bare hands
