B)When the fire is not in your apartment
If you cannot identify the accurate position of the fire, quickly feel door's
temperature with the back of your hand and check if there are smokes
coming in from the crack between the door and its frame. By inspecting
there is no smoke and the temperature of the door is low, you can open
the door and begin to evacuate. However, if you notice smoke after you
open the door then you should step back to your room and close the door
immediately. Also, it is essential to fill up the crack between the door
and its frame to obstruct the smoke since you can gain time for yourself
to report your location to 119. Additionally you provide more time for
the rescue team to rescue you. On the other hand, if you do not see any
smokes after you open the door then escape to safe places.
