Do not turn on
any gas or electric appliances.

Do not touch
any electrical switches or plug in a power cord.

Do not use
any phone in your building.

Evacuate
everyone from the building.

Checking for gas leaks
Leak-testing the appliance must be done as the manufacturer directs. Do not use a
flame to check for gas leaks. With a brush, spread a soap-and-water solution around
the area in question. If there is a gas leak, small bubbles will appear in the solution.
