Greetings from AREX. :)
You already know to cover your head and seek shelter during an
earthquake, however what must you do if an earthquake starts while you are
riding the subway?
Come take a look together with AREX to find out.
When an
Earthquake Occurs While on the Subway
If an earthquake occurs while inside a subway train
grab a handle or similar fixed object tightly to counter
and shock
and calmly follow the advice of the train worker.
If the shocks of the earthquake cause a blackout
The emergency lights of the train will turn on, so do
not be flustered
And refrain from doing anything dangerous.
In the case of a class 5 earthquake or greater, the
train will temporarily come to a halt.
If opening the doors and exiting the train,
You must be cautious while evacuating.
How about when an earthquake occurs while
within the subway station?
When an
Earthquake Occurs While Within the Subway Station
The AREX is built to resist
earthquakes,
So if one breaks out, do not be
frightened and remain calm.
Even if a blackout occurs, emergency lights will be up
and running so you may evacuate. Therefore, follow the directions of the
station workers and firemen in an orderly fashion.
If an earthquake occurs whilst riding an elevator
Wait for the elevator to stop and swiftly get off and
seek shelter.
If you
become trapped in the elevator, please use the interphone to request help from
a station worker.
This concludes the briefing on how to seek shelter in case of an
earthquake.
