When Fire strike! learn how will you are going to do from basic Instructions as following;
1. When you check into The Ambassador City Jomtien Hotels&Resorts Complex, ask for a copy of the fire procedures plan. If they do not have one, ask why.
2. Check to see if there is a smoke detector in your room. If there isn’t any, ask for a room that has one.
3. Familiarize yourself with the locations of the fire exits and count the number of doors from your room to the nearest fire exit. (If the corridor is smoky, you may not be able to see the exit, but you can feel your way along the floor.)
4. Get into the habit of keeping your key in the same place every time you stay in room or hotel so that you’ll always know exactly where it is. Then, if you have to leave your room, be sure to take your key with you. (If you cannot reach the exit, you may have to return to your room because of fire or smoke in the hallway.)
5. If you wake up and find your room is beginning to fill with smoke, grab your key, roll off the bed, and head for the door on your hands and knees. You’ll want to save your eyes and lungs as long as possible, and the air five or six feet up may be filled with odorless carbon monoxide.
6. Before leaving your room, feel the door with the palm of your hand. If it is hot, or even warm, do not open it! If it is not warm, slowly open it a crack, with the palm of your hand still on the door (in case you have to slam it shut), and peek into the hallway to see what’s happening.
7. If the coast is clear, crawl into the hallway, feeling your way along the exit side of the wall. It’s easy to get lost or disoriented in smoke. Count the doors as you go.
9. When you reach the exit, walk down the stairs to the first floor. (Exit doors are locked on the stairwell side, so you cannot enter any other floor.)
10. If you encounter smoke in the stairwell on the way down, the smoke may be “stacking” on the floors under it, and the stairwell would be impassable. Do not try to run through it. Turn around and go up to the roof.
11. When you reach the roof, open the door and leave it open so the stairwell can vent itself. find the indward side of the building so you won’t be caught up in the smoke. Then, have a seat and wait for the firefighters to find you.
12. If you cannot get out of your room safely, fill the bathtub or sink with water. Soak towels and stuff them under the door and between the cracks to keep the smoke out. With your ice bucket, bail water onto the door to keep it cool. If the walls are hot, bail water on them, too. Wet your mattress and put it up against the door. Keep everything wet.
13. If smoke does begin to seep into your room, open the window. (Keep the window closed if there is no smoke. There may be smoke outside.) If you see the fire through the window, pull the drapes down so that they will not catch fire. Also, wet a handkerchief or washcloth and breathe through it.
14. DO NOT JUMP unless you are certain of injury if you stay in your room one minute longer. Most people hurt themselves jumping, even from the second floor; from the third floor, quite severely. If you’re higher than the third floor, chances are you will not survive the fall. You would be better off fighting the fire in your room.
