Fuel Gas Odor - Qlima GFA 1010E Instrucciones De Uso

FUEL GAS ODOR

LP gas and natural gas have manmade odorants added specifically for detection
of fuel gas leaks.
If a gas leak occurs you should be able to smell the fuel gas. Since Propane (LP)
is heavier than air you should smell for the gas odor low to the floor. ANY GAS
OROR IS YOUR SIGNAL TO GO INTO IMMEDIATE ACTION!

Do not take any action that could ignite the fuel gas. Do not operate any
electrical switches. Do not pull any power supply or extension cords. Do not
light matches or any other source of flame. Do not use your telephone.
Get everyone out of the building and away from the area immediately.
Close all propane (LP) gas tank or cylinder fuel supply valves.
Propane (LP) gas is heavier than air and may settle in low areas. When you
have reason to suspect a propane leak, keep out of all low areas.
Use your neighbor's phone and call your fuel gas supplier and your fire
department. Do not reenter the building or area.
Stay out of the building and away from the area from the area until declare
safe by the firefighters and your fuel gas supplier.
FINALLY, let the fuel gas service person and the firefighters check for escaped
gas. Have them air out the building and area before you return. Properly
trained service people must repair any leaks, check for further leakages, and
then relight the appliance for you.
The repairs or maintenance operations must only be carried out by qualified
personnel.
The unit must be checked by a qualified technician at least once a year.
Regularly check the conditions of gas hose, and gas regulator if it must be
replaced only use original spare parts.
Before starting any maintenance operation on the heater disconnect from
both gas and electrical suppliers.
If the unit has not been used for a long period we advise that a technician
carries out a general check up before using. It is important to control the fol-
lowing:
Periodically check the gas supply hose conditions and, should it be changed,
use only original spare parts.
Check the starting electrode position (Pic 1)
Check the connections of the safety thermostat and of the thermocouple:
they must always be clean.
If necessary clean the fan blade and the inside of the heater using compres-
sed air.
