Gas accident prevention
● Check if the flame of burner is out after use and do not forget to turn off the gas valve (Fig. 15)
and power.
● Always check the gas connectors for gas leakage with soapsuds. If any gas leakage is detected,
open the room windows and doors. At that moment, do not ignite or operate the switch of
electric appliances or plugs because the flame or electric spark can result in explosive accidents.
(Fig. 16)
● Heaters must use the gas type which the heater is designed to use, different type of gas or the
same gas in different place must not be used.
● Always check the gas pipe and change the pipe every year to avoid gas leakage due to cracking.
● If the flame goes unsteadily, stop using the water heater and contact the qualified service
facility for repair or adjustment.
