- As soon as you smell smoke, leave the building by the safest route. Try not to get into a crowd. Call the fire brigade.

- Do not enter where there is a high concentration of smoke. Do not try to escape to higher floors or remote rooms.s
- If the situation develops in such a way that you cannot leave the building, find the most open place where there is nothing to burn, and wait for the fire brigade to help.
- Throw the person to the ground, cover them with a thick cloth, such as a coat, to block the air flow. Call an ambulance and provide first aid.
- The main injuries from fires are burns and carbon monoxide poisoning.

- Apply wet, clean bandages to burns. Minor burns can be washed with cool running water for 10-15 minutes.
- If the burn is large, the victim should be wrapped in a clean sheet and taken to a doctor immediately.
