mable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
Do not try to light any appliance.
Do not touch any electrical switch; do not
use any phone in your building.
Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor's phone. Follow the gas
supplier's instructions.
If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call
the fire department.
Please record your gas log's model number for
future reference here:
Note: This model # can be found on the box or
the label attached to the back of the burner pan.
When used without fresh air, gas logs may give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, poisonous gas. Some
people such as pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease, and persons at high altitudes are
more affected by carbon monoxide than others.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu: Headache, dizziness, and/or nausea. If you
have these signs, the gas logs may not be installed or working properly. Get fresh air at once! Have the
gas log set and chimney serviced before using it again.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning May Lead to Death
