What to do
The apartment is on the sixth and top floor of a building with a lift.
1. Get out
Close the door behind you without locking it. Never take the lift. Use the stairs.
2. Raise the alarm
Call 18 or 112 once you are outside. Give the full address, the floor (sixth) and how many people are involved.
If the way out is blocked
Stay in the apartment, close the door, wet it, block the gaps with damp cloths and make yourself visible at the window.
