1. 1Start the planned responseFollow the building evacuation or other approved emergency sequence. Help direct occupants according to assigned duties without entering danger.
2. 2Report the eventCall emergency services from a safe place as specified in the plan; for an unexpected suspected fire, call 911. Give the address and observed conditions. Do not rely on the assumption that someone else called.
3. 3Account for peopleUse the designated assembly and accountability process. Tell responders about missing people and their last known locations; do not send staff back to search.
4. 4Share existing informationIf panel information is already available safely, relay the exact zone or device description. Collecting it must not delay evacuation or require entry into an unsafe area.
5. 5Wait for authorized re-entryA quiet building or stopped sounder is not an all-clear. Let responders and authorized site leadership direct re-entry and qualified technicians handle system restoration.

Record the exact location, observed condition, time, actions taken, person contacted and follow-up owner. Keep unresolved items visible. A completed checklist means the check was performed; it does not automatically mean the equipment passed or is safe.
