IF YOU ARE TRAPPED BY FIRE           

If you are trapped, it is vital that you remain calm so you can think clearly and take the correct action.  In smoke filled areas, crawl on the floor.  Do not walk, cleaner air is closest to the floor.

Put closed doors between you and smoke and heat.  Seal off cracks around doors and vents.  If possible, use wet towels.

Make sure the Fire Department knows your exact location.  Even if the Fire Department is at the building, call 911 to alert them of your location; then call the Building Management Office at 630-250-9700 and inform them of the same.
