Fire Action Notice

• If a fire breaks out, yell "Fire!" to notify people around you and press the "Push" switch on the transmitter of the nearest fire hydrant.
• If the fire doesn't reach the ceiling, put it out quickly with a fire extinguisher or a bucket of water.
• If the initial fire extinguishment has failed and the fire has expanded, report it to the fire department by calling 119.

Guidelines on Evacuation in Case of a Fire

• Before opening the handle of a door, check whether it is hot or not.
• In the event of a fire, the elevator must never be used. It may stop when a blackout begins.
• If you cannot evacuate downstairs, go to the rooftop and wait for rescue while standing against the wind.
• When you evacuate from a fire, make a blanket, towel, or any type of cloth wet enough to allow you to breathe, or to cover yourself from the fire.
• If trapped in a room, seal cracks around the door to prevent smoke from entering. Then shout out of the window quickly and drop any items to alert people to your location.
