14. Practice Fire Safety
If the alarm sounds, and you have not pushed the test but-
ton, it is warning of a dangerous situation, your immediate
response is necessary. To prepare for such occurrences, de-
velop family escape plans, discuss them with all household
members, and practice them regularly.
• Expose everyone to the sound of a smoke alarm and
explain what the sound means.
• Determine two exits from each room and an escape route
to the outside from each exit.
• Teach all household members to touch the door and use
an alternate exit when the door is hot, instruct them not
to open the door if the door is hot.
• Teach household members to crawl along the floor to
stay below dangerous smoke, fumes and gases.
• Determine a safe meeting place for all members outside
the building.
14.1 What to Do in Case of Fire
• Do not be panic; stay calm.
• Leave the building as quickly as possible. Touch doors
to feel if they were hot before opening them. Use an
alternate exit if necessary. Crawl along the floor, and do
stop to collect anything.
• Meet at a pre-arranged meeting place outside the
building.
• Call the fire department from outside the building.
• Do not go back inside a burning building. Wait for the
fire department to arrive.

tice fire safety rules and prevent hazardous situations.

route way, if you have several bedrooms, you'd better

after rising to the ceiling, so install the alarm on middle
of the ceiling of ordinary structure house. Let the alarm
induce every corner.
• If alarm couldn't be installed in the middle of the ceiling
for some reasons, the distance which the alarm away
form the wall corner should be beyond 50 cm. (see the
diagram 1).
• If the length of the room or the hall is beyond 9 m, you
need install several alarms in the hall.

installed 50 cm away from the highest ceiling point in
the room (see the diagram 2).
