Air Conditioning and Heating
Every apartment has its own individually controlled heating and air conditioning to allow you to regulate the property temperature for your own comfort.
Recommended temperatures: Heating 20c / Cooling 22c.
Please turn off heating and cooling when not in the apartment to reduce power usage.
To change settings refer to the user manual located in the Eureka Black Box. The Eureka Black Box is located in a cupboard in your apartment, either in the entrance hall or above the fridge.
Automatic Safety Systems
Eureka Tower has the following automated safety systems to prevent damage during high velocity winds:
• All apartments on Level 30 and above include a door alarm. If the balcony door/s or windows are left open, and the resident attempts to exit the front door, this alarm will sound as a reminder to close windows and doors.
• The building’s external windows have been designed to close automatically during high wind activity.
• During high wind activity, most of the lift systems will automatically be shut down. In this event, one of the central lifts may be accessed by contacting Eureka Concierge.
• Like most tall buildings, Eureka Tower is designed to move during high wind activity. During extremely high winds, this movement may be felt in your apartment.
Please note: any damaged sustained to the apartment due to failure to close balcony doors is the responsibility of the guest.
Building Entry
Entry into Eureka Tower residential property is by security card at the entrance on Riverside Quay. You will need to swipe your card every time you enter the building (including accessing the building from the car park).
Visitors to your apartment
The visitor intercom is located at the main entrance to the building and in the main foyer at the base of each tower. Visitors should key in the apartment number and press the bell button. To allow access press the button with a key symbol on the security access phone located in your apartment.
Building Management

Concierge and Security
Eureka Tower provides a concierge service on the ground floor between 7:00 am and 11:00 pm, seven days a week. Eureka Concierge will assist you with any queries relating to the building and any of the facilities. To contact Eureka Concierge from your apartment please call 9685 0188 and select option 1.

Car Parking
If you have requested a car park, you will have been provided with a car park swipe card upon check-in. The car park is accessed via Cook Street. You will need to use your swipe card to gain access to the building from the car park. Please note there is no visitor parking on site, however other public car parks are available locally.
Please ensure you always park in the car park allocated. The Eureka Building Management has the authority to tow cars not in the correct car space and we would hate for you to have to deal with this inconvenience. To avoid any issues with Building Management, please advise Concierge of your vehicle registration number.
Check Out Time
Check out time for all apartments in the Corporate Keys Group is 10:00 am.
Cook Top, Range Hood and Oven / Convection Microwave
Every cook top is fitted with a range hood. Please ensure this is used when cooking. Smoke alarms activated by guests due to a failure to use the range hood incur costs for attendance of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade; these costs are payable by the guest.
Some Eureka Tower apartments have a convection microwave in place of a standard oven. Operating instructions for these appliances are contained in the Eureka Black Box. Certain models of oven require the clock to be set correctly. If your oven will not heat, please check the clock is set before contacting Corporate Keys. If the oven will not turn off, ensure the door is closed properly and that no cooking function is selected. If the oven shuts down, it may have overheated. It will reset itself, but you will need to reset the clock (depending on the model, the oven may not function again until the clock is reset).
Some cook top models have a safety switch installed on the splash back wall directly behind the cook top. These safety switches resemble a light switch and must be in the “on” position for the cook top hobs to operate. If you require the full manual please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.
Dishwasher
A starter pack of dish washing tablets/powder is located in the cupboard under the sink in the kitchen. Additional tablets or powder can be purchased from your local supermarket. Please use only powder or tablets specifically marked for dishwasher use in the dishwasher. Liquids will damage the machine and guests will be liable for any resulting service charges. If you require the full manual, please contact Guest Services. Alternatively, most appliance manuals can be downloaded from the internet.
Emergency Evacuation Procedures
Refer to the “Emergency Evacuation Plan”, located in the Eureka Black Box. In case of evacuation, DO NOT use the lifts. Please contact Eureka Concierge with any questions regarding evacuation procedures.
Housekeeping
The linen in your apartment has been laundered prior to your arrival. If you have requested housekeeping, Guest Services will contact you by email to confirm the schedule for this service. If no housekeeping service has been requested, subsequent laundering of linen is your responsibility for the duration of your stay. Please ensure that linen is cared for and that white towels and sheets are not washed with coloured items.
Please note – do not hang any wet laundry across furniture. Doing so will cause damage to the furniture, for which guests are liable.
Should you not have a housekeeping service and later wish to request one, please contact Guest Services.
Ironing Facilities
An iron and ironing board are located in the laundry area/wardrobe of your apartment.
Lifts / Elevators

Please note, Eureka Tower main entrance has three lift well areas. There is an additional lift well at the Cook Street Entrance. If you are unsure which lift well area to use, please contact Concierge.

Cardboard boxes, larger rubbish bags and glass must not be placed in the refuse chute. Please leave cardboard boxes folded flat for collection in the refuse room located on each floor.

All apartments are fitted with smoke detectors. Smoking in the apartment will trigger an automatic call to emergency services.
