IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR LP GAS CUSTOMERS

Dear Valued LP Gas Customer:

While LP gas (propane) is a very safe and reliable heat source, like all gas, if it leaks, it can cause injury, death, and property damage. As your LP gas provider, we take your safety seriously. Therefore, 我们使用这些信息来提醒您必须遵循的安全程序，以确保您和您的家人在使用液化石油气时的安全.

您和您的家人必须阅读这些信息和我们题为“重要丙烷安全信息”的小册子.” Keep it nearby and periodically reread it. 如果不遵守本通讯和上述小册子中的安全预防措施，可能会导致气体爆炸和火灾，或因未正确操作或通风的器具产生的一氧化碳而窒息死亡. 我们可以在您方便的时候提供宣传册的复印件(我们也每年邮寄一次)。. 

以下是我们想要强调的小册子中的几个注意事项:

如果你闻到LP煤气，如果你认为你听到煤气泄漏，或者如果煤气探测器发出警报，

• 从邻居的家里或附近的其他建筑物打电话给丙烷零售商，或者在房屋外的安全地点使用手机，远离气体泄漏区域.
• 如果联系不到丙烷零售商，请拨打911或当地消防部门，
• 在丙烷零售商或安全人员告诉你安全之前，不要再进入建筑物或区域.
• Before you attempt to use any of your propane appliances, 您的丙烷零售商或合格的服务技术人员必须检查您的整个燃气管道系统，以确保它没有泄漏.

如果液化石油气泄漏并着火，会造成人身伤害、死亡或财产损失. To prevent this, do the following:

• 你家里的每个人都应该抓挠并嗅嗅上面提到的宣传册上的蓝色圆圈. Learn what LP gas smells like.
• Buy, install, 并根据制造商的说明至少维护一个LP气体探测器, which is designed to alarm when gas has leaked. 这是因为在某些情况下，您可能无法闻到LP气体. If alarm goes off, take the same precautions as if you smell gas.

Exposure to Carbon Monoxide (CO) can cause injury or death. To prevent this, do the following:

• Buy, install, 并按照制造商的说明维护一氧化碳探测器, which is designed to alarm when CO is detected. This is because you typically cannot taste or smell CO, 哪些是由不正常运行的电器产生的.
• Everyone in your home should be aware of the symptoms of CO, including Headache, Dizziness, Fatigue, Shortness of breath and Nausea.
• If you or a family member shows physical symptoms of CO poisoning, 让所有人离开大楼，拨打911或当地消防部门.
• 不要试图修理，修改，或改变您的丙烷管道系统或连接设备. Only allow qualified personnel to work on it.
• DO NOT attempt to relight any pilot lights. If a pilot light has gone out there may be a safety problem. 打电话给您的丙烷零售商，重新点燃所有飞行员，或联系合格的维修技术人员对您的丙烷设备进行维修或维护.
• AVOID RUNNING OUT OF GAS. Safety hazards, including fire or explosion can result.

如果您的液化石油气用完或服务中断，请立即致电我们 217-762-2133 这样我们就可以出来检查你们的煤气管道，检查是否有泄漏. 然后由合格的技术人员重新点亮引航灯.

If you have run out of gas, you need to do the following:

• Close the service valve on your LP gas tank.
• Shut off all gas valves for appliances that use LP gas.

如果闻到丙烷味，怀疑有泄漏，或警报响起，该怎么办

• IMMEDIATELY evacuate the structure or area to a safe distance.
• 扑灭所有冒烟的物质和明火或火源.
• DO NOT operate any electric switches, thermostats, or appliances.
• DO NOT use your house telephone. (If you are now using your house telephone, set it down (do not hang up), call us on another telephone from a safe area, and exit the structure).
• DO NOT attempt repairs.
• Once everyone is outside and if it is safe to do so, 应关闭丙烷供应容器上的截止阀。, or at the meter.

• 在全面检查确定是否有气体泄漏之前，除合格的燃气专业人员或应急人员外，不要让任何人进入建筑物, and if so, 大楼通风良好，漏水处已修复.
• 是否有合格的低压气体技术员测试管道系统并修复任何泄漏, then check and re-light all of your gas appliances.

KNOW THE “ODOR” OF PROPANE

• Each family member should know the smell of propane. (一种难闻的气味被添加到丙烷中，所以你可以检测到丙烷的存在).
• 请您的丙烷送货司机或其他公司代表证明其气味.
• Under some of the following conditions, you may not smell a gas leak - so it is recommended you buy, install, 并按照制造商的说明维护至少一个丙烷气体探测器.
  • 有些人的嗅觉可能受损，无法察觉气体的气味.
  • Colds, allergies, sinus congestion, and the use of tobacco, alcohol, or drugs may diminish your sense of smell.
  • 烹饪气味或其他强烈的气味可以掩盖煤气的味道.
  • On rare-occasions, propane gas may lose its distinctive odor. This is called “odor fade”. Air, water, 丙烷罐或气瓶中的锈迹可能会削弱气体的气味，特别是在容器清空后阀门仍然打开的情况下.

REMEMBER

• 呼叫合格的技术人员测试丙烷管道系统是否泄漏，当丙烷服务中断时重新点亮飞行员.
• Repeated pilot outages could indicate a hazardous condition. Call a qualified technician to check the appliance.
• 丙烷比空气重，最初可以在地面收集. 要检查是否有丙烷，请仔细闻遍整个房间，尤其是在低矮的地方.
• Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. Any type of a gas odor may signal a serious propane gas leak.
• If a propane gas detector has sounded an alarm, 立即按照上面“如果警报响起该怎么办”的步骤进行操作.”
• Always have a qualified technician investigate all foul odors. 你认为可能是垃圾、污水或死老鼠的东西，可能是严重的丙烷气体泄漏.
• DO NOT let your propane system run out of propane.
