AREX: Safety Guide

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.

Hello!

This is AREX . :)

Last time we went over the general safety procedures within the subway trains!

Today, we will go over the safety procedures that will help us avoid injury and evacuate in case of the sudden outbreak of a fire~!

In Case of Fire Within the Train

1. In case of the sudden outbreak of a fire within the train, use one of the emergency bells located at either end of every train to alert the engineer!

A reckless evacuation can cause chaos!

In case of an accident, calmly alert the engineer of the situation and safely evacuate according to his or her instructions!

2. Please use the fire extinguishers located at either end of the trains to extinguish any small fires.

Before a small fire spreads into a larger one, please extinguish any fires by using the fire extinguishers at either end of the train. : )

3. If the situation arises, evacuate through the train doors after manually opening the doors.

After a fire occurs, according to the situation we must open the doors manually and exit. After exiting the train, evacuate while being cautious of the train, level of the ground, and of any trains coming from the opposite direction!

We will also go over the evacuation procedures in case of a fire within the station and outside of the train. : )

In Case of Fire Within the Station

1. If a fire breaks out, please push the emergency button above the fire hydrant.

In case of a fire within the station, push the emergency button and alert all people within the area.

When the fire alarm rings, safely and swiftly evacuate.

2. Alert a worker at the station of the situation by using one of the emergency telephones installed in the station.

Alert the worker at the station by using the emergency telephone and then call 119. Follow the station worker’s and the fireman’s direction to safely evacuate.

3. In case of emergency, evacuate using the safety equipment in the station.

In case of a crisis, use the safety equipment, such as respirators, fire masks, etc., installed at the platforms and evacuate.

Correctly handling a fire is important, however not having a fire occur in the first place is the number one priority.

We have now gone over the evacuation procedures in case of a fire within the station.

You can find information on how to travel comfortably on AREX’s homepage.
