Remain at the box, if possible, after giving an alarm, to direct the firemen to the fire. Do not give an alarm for a fire seen at a distance.
Be sure the box is closed before leaving it.
If you remove from your house or place of business, return the key to Chief Engineer.
Key-holders will bear in mind that their key will be "trapped " when used, and will be returned to them by an engineer.
