Test them monthly and change the batteries yearly. Fire won't wait, so plan your escape. When the smoke alarm goes off,-know how to escape safely.

Your as are ara from the acrid smoke that is rapidly filling your home and your child is crying in the room next door. Would you know what to do? Would your loved ones know what to do? Could everyone get out safe- ly? This is the time when every sec- ond counts and when your pre-fire planning can definitely pay off. Many people are unable to get out safely because they panic and do not know what to do when con- fronted by smoke or fire. Many people never get out alive. Take a few minutes right now to think about what you would do if a fire broke out in your home tonight when everyone is asleep. Here are some important tips to consider: “* All home escape plans should begin with the installation or main- tenance of smoke alarms. A-work- ing smoke alarm will warn you of a fire but you must know the imme- diate actions to take to ensure that everyone escapes safely. * Plan two ways out of each area of the home in case your normal route is blocked by smoke. Make sure that the second way out can be easily accessed by all individuals. Choose a meeting place outside the home. Everyone must get out quickly and go to the pre-arranged meeting place to ensure that all are accounted for. *Call the Fire Department from a neighbor's house. Never go back into a burning building. * Have everyone practice your escape plan at least twice a year. Be sure that everyone knows how they would get out of every room, not just their own bedrooms. * If smoke is encountered, every- one should crawl on their hands and knees under the smoke to the The Halton Hills Fire Department wants you to be pre- pared if a fire strikes your home.
