GAS LEAK SAFETY MEASURES
If you discover that gas is leaking, take the following safety measures.
• Immediately quench all flames.
• Immediately open all doors and windows.
• Do not enter rooms where smell of gas is recognizable with open fire.
• Do not activate any electrical switch.
• Do not pull out any electrical plug
• Do not activate any electrical alarm.
• Close all main shutting facilities, and then see if all gas mountings are closed and
close those still open.
• Only switch on the light when there is no smell of gas anymore.
If the reason for the smell of gas cannot be found although all gas mountings are closed,
immediately call your gas supply authority. Even a faint smell of gas, the cause of which
cannot be found, has to be reported to the gas supply authority.
If the smell of gas penetrates rooms that are not easily accessible, the police or the fire
brigade must be called in immediately and the gas supply authority must be informed.
If there is penetration of gas in the cellar, air the cellar but do not enter.
Do not repair gas fitting damages yourself. Such damages are only to be repaired by
experts; that is, the authorized agents of the gas supply authority and the contractual
enterprises.
