- Use ISI-mark LPG tubes.
- Always keep the cylinder in a vertical position.
- You should regularly check for cracks in the LPG rubber tube.
- Place the gas stove on a raised platform because LPG is heavier than air and tends to settle on the base.
- Never operate a stove near or facing a window.
- You should switch off the regulator when cooking gas is not in use, especially at night.
- Never repair the gas stoye or cylinder yourself. Whenever required, call the expert from the gas agency.
- Never operate any electrical switch if you smell LPG leakage.
- Do not use a lighted lamp to locate the leak. Use soap water solution.
- If the flame of gas stove is blue, everything is fine. If the outlet holes are blocked and the flame is yellow, clean the burner or get your stove checked by a mechanic.
