below ground level will serve as pockets for the accumulation of
the gas.

SMELL GAS, FOLLOW THESE RULES.
1. Get all people out of the building.
2. DO NOT light matches.
3. DO NOT touch electrical switches (on or off).

6. IMMEDIATELY call the L.P. Gas Company or the fire
department from a neighbor’s phone. Ask for instructions. Before
hanging up, give your name, address and telephone number.
7. DO NOT go back into the building. If help is coming, wait for
it outside the building.
OUT OF FUEL
When your L.P. tank runs out of fuel, turn off gas at all gas
