The EvacSill is an emergency escape system. Please note:
It should only be used by able-bodied people capable of climbing over the window sill and
•
descending on the emergency escape ladder unaided. The ladder is therefore only suitable for
mobile people aged 10 to 60 years of age.
It should only be deployed in an emergency.
•
It should not be used as an access device.
•
Only one person should be on the ladder at any one time.
•
After the deployment, the ladder must be re-packed by the manufacturer. To this purpose the used
ladder component within the system must be sent to

You should, however, familiarise yourself with the product.
You should find underneath the sill, or in the information pack of the builder, a self-adhesive, glow-in-
the-dark sticker which you can stick on top of the sill. This sticker offers instructions of how to remove
the sill.
Underneath the sill is also an instruction board showing the deployment of the EvacSill emergency
escape system.
Please keep this manual in a safe place and pass to the next person living in this house after you!
