What to do
- Move away only by a safe route. Do not cross smoke, water or cables to escape. Report if unable to leave.
- For danger now, request emergency help without waiting to know the cause. Say what you see and where you are.
- Follow emergency responders’ evacuation or shelter instructions.
- No phone or connection: ask someone nearby to call from safety. Give location and what is happening. Do not wait for an automatic app alert.
- Say if unable to leave, walk or communicate well. Ask a trusted person to help call. Do not force painful movement.
What to avoid
- Do not investigate up close or attempt repairs to discover the cause.
