Fire Safety

Never smoke in bed or cook in your room.

Always unplug personal electrical appliances, such as irons, hair dryers and curling irons.

Please Plan Ahead

• In case of fire, smoke may reduce visibility so plan ahead.
• Study the emergency evacuation route located behind the room door.
• Determine the location of the two nearest exits, fire alarms and extinguishing equipment.
• Count the number of doors between your door and the exit door.
• Keep your room key readily available.
• Do not use elevators.

In Case of Fire

• If you detect a fire, pull the nearest fire alarm if you can safely do so and notify the hotel Front Desk.
• Move quickly, but calmly, to the nearest exit. DO NOT use elevators.
• If you hear a fire alarm, DO NOT PANIC. Remain calm, take your key and go to the door of your room.
• If your room is smoky, get on your hands and knees, and crawl to the door.
• Feel the door and door knob. If it is HOT, DO NOT OPEN the door. If it is cool, open it slowly.
• If the hallway is smoky, get on your hands and knees, stay next to the wall, and count the doors as you crawl to the exit.
• Take your room key with you so you can crawl back to your room if the exit is unavailable (remember the number of doors between your door and the exit).

If You Cannot Leave This Room

• Call the Front Desk and let them know where you are.
• Fill the bathtub and sink with cold water for firefighting.
• Wet your sheets, towels or clothing, and stuff them in all cracks around doors and vents.
• Using an ice bucket or other container, keep doors and walls wet.
• Check to see if there is smoke outside the window; if there is no smoke and the window can be opened, hang a sheet of light-colored material outside.
• Make yourself visible to rescue personnel through any window. DO NOT JUMP.
• If your room is smoky, fold a wet towel in a triangle and tie over your nose and mouth, stay low.
