Steps to be followed in the event of earthquake:

(i) If you are indoors, stand against a wall near the center of the building, stand in a doorway, or crawl under heavy furniture (a desk or a table). Stay away from windows and outside doors.

(ii) If you are outdoors, stay in the open away from power lines or anything that might fall. Stay away from buildings (stuff might fall *** the building or the building could fall on you).

(iii) Don’t use matches, candles, or any flame. Broken gas lines and **** don’t mix.

(iv) If you are in a car, stop the car and stay inside the car until the earthquake stops.

(v) Don’t use elevators (they may get stuck).
