Securing the Ladder After Use

1. Lay the box on the floor with the lid folded open.

2. Stretch the ladder out

on the floor, with the
rung standoffs facing
up towards you placing
the rungs as close as
possible next to each
other.

3. Use the plastic strap

(attached to the last
rung) to wrap and
secure the rungs. 
This will minimize the
chance of the ladder
becoming tangled
when you remove it
from the box in an
emergency.

4. Lay the rungs,

wrapped with the
plastic wrap, in the
box with the stand-
offs facing upward.
Place the folded sill
hooks on top of the
rungs, between the
standoffs.

5. Store the escape ladder in an accessible location. 

Be sure nothing blocks your access to the ladder.

How to Use in a Fire Emergency

This fire escape ladder is not a toy or recreational device.
Use it only in a fire emergency.

It is strongly recommended that children and elderly adults
be assisted by an adult if at all possible when using this 
ladder in a fire emergency.

THIS LADDER IS DESIGNED FOR USE BY ONE PERSON AT
A TIME.

1. Before you open the window, close the door leading out of

the room to prevent the fire from being drawn into the
room.

2. Remove the ladder from

the box and unfold sill
hooks so the folding
crosspiece is straight and
positioned towards you.

3. Place the sill hooks firmly over the windowsill and pull the

release strap to deploy the ladder.

4. Exit carefully through the 

window and place your feet
on the first rung. Hold onto
the window frame until your
weight is evenly distributed
on the ladder. Climb down,
keeping your body close to
the ladder.
