SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF PROPANE GAS
Propane is a ammable gas which can cause res and
explosions. In its natural state, propane is odorless and
colorless. You may not know all the following safety
precautions which can protect both you and your family
from an accident. Read them carefully now, then review
them point by point with the members of your house-
hold. Someday when there may not be a minute to lose,
everyone’s safety will depend on knowing exactly what
to do. If, after reading the following information, you feel
you still need more information, please contact your gas
supplier.
PROPANE GAS WARNING ODOR
If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the
gas because of the odorant put in the Propane Gas.
That’s your signal to go into immediate action!
