This device cannot offer unlimited protection; in particular, it cannot protect against
the most common causes of death by fire, such as smoking in bed, unattended
candles, etc.
Planning your escape route if the alarm goes off:
1. Check the doors to rooms for heat or smoke. Do not open doors that feel hot. Use
another escape route. When you leave, close all doors behind you.
2. If the smoke is thick, stay close to the floor and crawl out. Take short breaths
(if possible through a damp towel) or hold your breath. More people die from smoke
inhalation than from flames.
3. Leave the building as quickly as possible. Do not stop to gather belongings. Fix
a meeting point outside the building beforehand for all family members. Check
whether everyone is there.
4. Call the fire service from a neighbour's home or your mobile phone. Remember to
give your name and address, including the floor you live on.
5. NEVER go back into a burning building.
