Safety Precautions While In An Elevator

A few simple precautions make every elevator ride safe and comfortable - for you, your family and other passengers. Here is what every passenger should follow.

Safety Precautions Every Passenger Should Follow

• Children with an adult: Children should always be accompanied by a responsible adult.
• Respect the rated load: Check the capacity shown in the cabin and never exceed it.
• Enter and exit safely: Watch your step and let others step out before you enter.
• Use the controls correctly: Press the required floor button once. Do not tamper with the panel.
• Use the door-open button: If someone needs to enter or exit, press door-open - never push the doors by hand.
• Keep the cabin clear: Stand away from the doors and do not crowd, run or jump inside.
• Keep the elevator clean: Do not litter or spill liquids in the cabin.

If the Elevator Stops Between Floors

• Remain calm - modern elevators have safety systems that hold the cabin securely.
• Press the emergency alarm or use the intercom and tell the team where you are.
• Wait for trained help. Do not force the doors or try to exit on your own.

In Case of Fire or Earthquake

Do not use the elevator. Use the designated emergency exit or stairs and follow the building's emergency procedure.
