ALWAyS bE PREPARED OF FIRE

If your house catches fire, it's matter of seconds to save lives. It is very
important that everyone in the house is properly prepared.
Make an evacuation plan.
• Choose the windows most suitable for evacuation in case the ordinary
path should be blocked by smoke or fire. If the windows are high above
the ground, make sure there's a ladder outside.
• Decide some place outside the house where the family gathers in case
of an alarm.
• If it's possible, keep the bedroom door closed at night. A door might
stand the fire the necessarily amount of time to make an evacuation
through a window possible.
• If you have access to fire extinguishing tools make sure they work and
that you are able to handle them.
• Practice evacuation with the family.
If there's a fire.
• Wake up everybody else in the house and make sure they leave the
house. Follow the evacuation plan.
• If it's possible, close all doors and windows in order to limit the fire.
• Call the Fire Brigade (in Sweden 112).
• It it's a small fire you may try to put it out by yourself with a fire
extinguisher or a water hose.
• If you can't put out the fire yourself, make sure to get out of the house
as fast as possible.
• Do not re-enter the house once you left it.
How to avoid fire.
• Make sure that matches are out of reach for children.
• Never leave lit candles without supervision.
• Never empty ash trays in a paper bin or garbage can without being
certain that the ashes are completely put out. You may rinse it with
water or leave it for the night before you empty it.
• Make sure that the stove is properly put out or that the fire is screened
off so that no sparks spatters.
• Store and handle inflammable liquids in a safe way.
• Use only fuses with the correct rating. NEVER experiment with
homemade fuses of any kind.
• Immediately exchange faulty electric cables and plugs.
• Use only electric appliances marked with the "S" certification.
