In an emergency you must know how to turn off gas and electricity. Find out how before the emergency.

WARNING

Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the furnace before shutting off the electrical supply. Failure to do so can cause a fire or explosion which could result in damage, injury of death.

4.A GAS AND ELECTRICAL SHUT-OFF DEVICES

1.GAS SHUT-OFF DEVICES

In an emergency, you may not be able to reach all the gas shut-off devices. You must know how to turn off gas using any one of the three manual types:

a.Manual Shut-off Switch on Gas Control Gas control location is behind the access panel on the right side. See Lighting and Shutdown Instructions in Section 5 for more information.

To turn gas control furnace knob OFF, turn it to “OFF” position. Use this same procedure when you leave a vacation home vacant and do not want the furnace to operate.

b.Manual In-Line Shut-off Valve in Gas Supply Line.

This valve could be next to furnace. Figure 1 shows a typical installation.

Normally, gas is ON when you turn the shut-off valve handle parallel to gas pipe. Gas is OFF when you turn handle 90° from gas pipe.

c.Manual Shut-off Valve at Natural Gas Meter or Propane (LP) Gas Tank.

Normally, natural gas is ON when you turn shut-off parallel to gas pipe. Gas is OFF when you turn shut-off 90° from gas pipe. Some valves require a wrench or other tools.

2.ELECTRICAL SHUT-OFF DEVICES

In an emergency, you may not be able to reach both of your electrical shut-off devices. Therefore,you must know how to turn off electricity using either one of them. Here are two types of electrical shut-off devices:

a.There should be an electrical shut-off device located on or immediately adjacent to the furnace.

b.There should be a separate circuit breaker or fuse serving only the furnace located in the main circuit breaker or fuse panel.

Know its location and make sure this device is clearly identified.
