V. Use gas with caution
(1) Main reasons for gas-involved disasters Leaked gas is ignited or exploded: When gas leakage
happens without notice, the gas will be ignited or exploded immediately whenever it reaches
fire source. Using stove fire in a poorly-ventilated location will cause the flame to extinct, and
gas leakage or incomplete combustion may lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. Keep good
ventilation when cooking with stove fire; adjust gas flame to blue color to prevent tragedy of
carbon monoxide poisoning. (flame in red color means incomplete combustion.)
(2) When using stove fire, please follow the safety principle of “Turn off gas
before leaving”.
(3) Check frequently gas valve and rubber hose for loose connection or breakage.
(4) In case of gas leakage, adopt the following steps:
1. Turn off the gas.
2. Gently open doors and windows for ventilation.
3. Do not ignite any kindling or spark; especially do not turn on or off lamps, electric fans, or
ventilation fans.
