If there is a strong earthquake (7 points or more), you should either quickly (within 15–20 seconds) leave the building without using the elevator, or take refuge in a relatively safe place.
If you have managed to evacuate yourself onto the street, immediately move to a safe distance away from the nearest buildings and structures. Beware of broken electric wires.
If you stay indoors, stay close to the interior walls and further away from windows, as well as other glass objects, balconies, and stairs.
