• Move the Smoke/CO Alarm and place in another location prior to performing
any of the following:
• Staining or stripping wood floors or furniture
• Painting
• Wall papering

sensors from damage. When household cleaning supplies or similar contami-
nates are used, the area must be well ventilated.

to assure continuous protection.
12. GOOD SAFETY HABITS
DEVELOP AND PRACTICE A PLAN OF ESCAPE
Prepare and practice a home escape plan twice a year, including drills at night.
Know two ways out of every room (door & window) and identify a meeting
place outside the home where everyone will gather once they have exited the
residence. When two people have reached the meeting place, one should leave
to call 911 while the second person stays to account for additional family mem-
bers.
Establish a rule that once you’re out, you never reenter under any
circumstance!
• Make a floor plan indicating all doors and windows and at least two (2)
escape routes from each room. Second story windows may need a rope or
chain ladder.
• Have a family meeting and discuss your escape plan, showing everyone what
to do in case of fire and where to meet after they leave the house.
• Ensure that small children hear the alarm and wake when it sounds. They
must wake up in order to execute the escape plan. Practice allows all occu-
pants to test your plan before an emergency. You may not be able to reach
your children. It is important they know what to do.
• Familiarize everyone with the sound of the smoke/CO alarm and train them to
leave your home when they hear it.
