• What to do at the time of an earthquake

  1. 

     First, hide under a desk or a table as soon as you feel a tremor. Your own safety is the most important priority.

  2. 

     After the tremor has stopped, turn off all the gas taps and then turn off the gas tap.

• If you smell gas

  

  Open the doors and windows for ventilation, and contact KITAGAS.

  Never use fire. Never touch switches for electrical appliances, either.

• Before using gas again afterwards

  

  Make sure there is no smell of gas, and then open the gas taps.

  Use the appliances as usual if gas is supplied. If no gas is supplied, check the light on the Intelligent Meter and follow the instructions on how to resume the gas supply.
