Elevator Operation Phase 2 allows what?

Elevator Operation Phase 2 allows what?

• A. Allows Emergency use of the elevator with certain safeguards and special functions.
• B. Elevator is locked down.
• C. Normal operation resumes.
• D. The elevator is decommissioned.

Answer: (A)

Phase 2 is the Firefighter’s Service Operation mode. After Phase I recall brings the elevator to a floor and restricts civilian use, Phase II allows firefighters to control and use the elevator for emergency tasks. This provides emergency access with built‑in safeguards and special functions—fire personnel can move the car to floors as needed, operate doors and controls under a firefighter control, and perform rescues or firefighting operations. It’s not normal operation, not a lockdown, and not decommissioned—the mode is specifically for authorized emergency use with protective features to ensure safety during firefighting activities.
