- Please tell them the elevator has stopped. Give them your name, the cab number and the floor where the elevator has stopped.
- The monitoring center will notify the building engineers who will verify where the stopped elevator is located and call the elevator company for emergency service.
- Building engineers will remain in the area where the elevator is stopped until the elevator personnel arrive.
- Never attempt to exit an elevator cab that is out of service until you have been cleared to do so by the building engineer, a representative from the elevator company, or the fire department.
