If a fire is discovered, dial 911 for help and fight the fire if it is safe to do so. In case of a fire, remember to RACE: rescue those in danger, alert others and call 911, contain the fire by closing doors and windows, and extinguish or evacuate. When the fire alarm sounds, leave the building immediately and proceed to the safe assembly point without delay or collecting belongings. Use a fire extinguisher only if the fire is small by pulling the pin, aiming at the base of the fire, squeezing the handle, and sweeping side to side. Do not fight larger fires or those involving smoke, blocked exits, chemicals, or that are not being contained.
