  Elevator Malfunction

Each elevator is equipped with a telephone which rings directly into Datawatch Systems’ Monitoring Center.  In the event an elevator should malfunction while you are in the cab, pick up the phone IMMEDIATELY.  Give them the building location and the cab number you are in (this information is displayed in the top left corner of the elevator as you are facing the doors).  Datawatch will contact building security and they will dispatch an engineer and elevator company personnel immediately. 

While being trapped in an elevator may be an inconvenience, you are in no danger as long as you remain in the cab.  Never try to pry the elevator doors open to get out.  It is extremely dangerous since the cab may not be properly aligned with the floor.  Wait for a qualified elevator mechanic or fireman to assist you.

In an emergency fire situation, elevators should never be used.  Please avoid using the elevators when an alarm sounds.
