What to do in case of fire

Generally speaking, a fire is a big fire, which can cause situations such as a house fire. There are many precautions when a fire occurs. These precautions should be taken seriously to a certain extent, because these precautions will play an important role for us. However, there are still many people who don’t know how to do it. So what should we do when a fire occurs?

When a fire occurs, stay calm and don't panic. Put out small fires. Call the police and escape if the fire is large.

1. When a fire occurs, you must remain calm and do not panic. After the initial fire occurs, the fire is often not large, and it is the best time to extinguish the fire and avoid greater losses. First, you must ensure your own safety and cut off the power first, then put out the fire. After confirming that the power is off, use a fire extinguisher to put out the fire, and prepare to use a fire hose. Once the fire extinguisher cannot control the fire, immediately open the fire hydrant to put out the fire.

2. Report fire: The main fire alarm number is 119. When calling the police, you must remain calm and not panic. You must clearly state your name, phone number, address, the location and location of the fire, the intensity of the fire, and the burning materials.

3. Be able to evacuate and save yourself in an emergency: When a fire accident occurs, evacuate in time, leave the fire scene, obey the instructions of the organizers, do not panic, and avoid trampling, congestion and casualties. When passing through a smoke-filled area, remember to cover your nose and mouth with a wet towel while breathing, and try to pass along the ground.

4. If there is a refuge floor or evacuation stairs, you can first enter the refuge floor or evacuate to a safe place via the evacuation stairs. If the floor is on fire but the stairs have not been burned down and the fire is not very fierce, you can put on clothes and blankets soaked in water and rush down from the upstairs quickly.

5. In the event of a fire in a multi-story building, if the stairs have been burned or the fire is quite fierce, you can use the balcony, downspouts or bamboo poles of the building to escape. If all escape routes are cut off, you should retreat indoors and close the doors and windows. If conditions permit, pour water on doors and windows to slow down the spread of fire. At the same time, you can throw small objects outside, and at night you can flash a flashlight outside to send out a distress signal.

6. If your life is seriously threatened and there is no other way to save yourself, you can use a rope or tear a bed sheet into strips and connect them together. Tie one end tightly to a sturdy door window or other heavy object, and then slide down along the rope or cloth strip. If you are unable to take the above self-rescue measures and time is very tight, and the threat of fireworks is serious, and you are forced to jump off the building, you can first throw some quilts and other items to the ground to increase the cushion, and then slide down the windowsill with your hands to reduce the height of the jump, and make sure your feet land first.
