To preserve phone battery, activating power-saving modes and restricting usage to urgent calls and messages is advisable.

People should avoid using elevators during the outage to prevent the risk of getting stuck in the event of an abrupt power failure. It is also important to have emergency contact numbers easily accessible, along with essential supplies such as water, snacks, and a first-aid kit.

By adhering to these precautions, residents can navigate the power disruption more safely and comfortably until electricity is restored.
