本操作规程的范围旨在尽可能广泛地适用于消防员今天可能遇到的电梯或残疾人疏散。然而，也有一些特定类型的电梯非常罕见，例如双层电梯，或者不适合消防，因此即使在今天的BS 9999和BS EN 81-72中所述的新型消防电梯中也不包括此类电梯。购买本文件时可获得的所有当前修订均包含在购买本文件中。

The scope of this code of practice is intended to be as wide ranging as possible with regards to the lifts which might be encountered today for use by firefighters or for evacuation of disabled people. However there are specific types of lifts which are either very rare, such as double deck lifts, or not suitable for fire-fighting and which are therefore excluded even from today's new fire-fighting lifts described in BS 9999 and BS EN 81-72.All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
