• Should a fire occur, an immediate attempt to put the fire out (e.g., smothering a wastebasket fire) usually will prevent it from getting out of control.
• Notify the Fire Department by dialing 911 then Building Management Office at 972-690-0451.
• The Building Fire Safety Director immediately will alert and put into action the Fire Brigade Team. Fire Wardens will work with the Fire Brigade.
• If partial evacuation is deemed necessary, the Tenant Suite Wardens in the suite affected, as well as the suites immediately above and below, shall be alerted.
• Evacuation will be by two stairwells - NOT THE ELEVATORS. (if applicable)
• Elevators shall be used by the Fire Department only. Other elevators shall be on standby at ground-suite level.
• Each Suite Warden and Fire Brigade member so assigned shall ascertain by search that no one remains on a suite being evacuated.
• Handicapped persons should be helped down stairwells.
• If management and the Fire Department determine complete evacuation of the building is necessary, all Suite Wardens are to be notified. Direct all people to stairwells - DO NOT PANIC! Use stairwells in single file. Exit building upon reaching ground level. A typical suite plan for elevation is attached. Please learn the layout for your particular suite, and post the suite plan in a conspicuous place. Suites have diagrams of stairwells posted in each elevator lobby on each suite showing location of elevators, corridors and stairwells.
