WHAT TO DO IF NATURAL GAS IS DETECTED:
1. Leave the house immediately, opening doors and windows as you leave.
2. Do not use your telephone or appliances. Do not turn any light switches off or on. Any
spark or flame could ignite the gas.
3. Call 911 and your gas company from a phone that is away from your home.
4. Do not reenter the area until the source of the leak is found and corrected.
If you hear the alarm horn sound 1 beep per second, gas has
been detected. Evacuate everyone from the building.
