The operators of elevators, passenger cable cars, and large amusement facilities shall place the safety usage instructions, safety precautions, and warning signs for such equipment in locations that are easily visible to passengers. The public using or operating elevators, passenger cable cars, and large-scale amusement facilities shall comply with the requirements of the safety usage instructions and safety precautions, and obey the management and instructions of the relevant staff ； In the event of abnormal operation, evacuation should be carried out in an orderly manner in accordance with the safety guidelines. Interpretation of the provision: This article stipulates the requirement to conduct regular inspections of passenger cable cars and large amusement facilities, as well as to install warning signs. At the same time, relevant regulations are also established regarding the rules that the public must follow when using or operating elevators, passenger cable cars, and large amusement rides. 1. Before use, passenger cable cars and large-scale amusement facilities should undergo trial operations and routine inspections. Passenger cable cars and large amusement rides are meant for tourists to ride in; accidents involving them can cause direct injuries to people, resulting in significant social impact. Therefore, safety becomes even more important, and special regulations for conducting safety inspections are necessary. It is stipulated that the using unit must carry out thorough trial operations and inspections before each day of operation, with particular attention paid to checking and verifying the safety accessories and protective devices, in order to ensure safer operation more effectively. II. The operating entities of elevators, passenger cable cars, and large-scale amusement facilities shall place relevant safety precautions and warning signs in prominent locations where they can be easily noticed by passengers. Since passengers of elevators, large amusement rides, and cable cars generally do not know the performance and operating methods of these devices, it is necessary to inform them of the relevant precautions, such as how to operate the elevator, safety guidelines, and measures for self-protection. For riding in large amusement rides and cable cars, passengers must be in good physical condition, and they must wear safety belts or use appropriate protective devices as instructed by the staff; these requirements also need to be communicated to the passengers. Safety precautions and warning signs for elevators are generally placed inside the elevator car or at the entrance to escalators, while those for large amusement rides and cable cars are usually located at the entrances so that passengers can easily see them and recognize them. III. Passengers shall comply with the requirements regarding safety measures. Some accidents involving elevators, passenger cable cars, and large amusement rides are directly related to passengers’ violation of relevant safety regulations; it is necessary to establish the responsibilities and obligations of passengers to comply with these safety requirements. Do not fight or pull at the doors randomly when using the elevator ； When children are riding, they must be supervised by an adult ； Do not open the cabin door when riding a passenger cable car, and do not disable the safety devices when using large amusement rides, etc.; otherwise, accidents may occur. In the event of an abnormal situation, it is necessary to follow the instructions of the relevant staff in order to be rescued promptly. It is important to note that when evacuating equipment, the process should be carried out in an orderly manner to prevent unnecessary harm caused by chaos at the scene.
