What should you do if there is smoke in your house and it’s hard to breathe?

• Crawl low under smoke where the air is fresher and cooler.

• Get out fast. Do not stop to rescue pets or personal possessions.

• Feel the door with the back of your hand. If the door is hot, use another escape route.
• Go directly to your meeting place outside.
• Call 9-1-1 from a neighbor’s home.
• Stay out! Never go back inside for any reason.

Memorize your phone number and street address.

What phone number do you call if there is a fire? What do you tell the person who answers the phone?

• Provide as much information as possible. Name and your address.
