*The "Hour 2" or "Hour 3"
is set, "Hour 2" or "Hour 3" will be respectively
displayed on the meter. The setting can be changed, so contact
your nearest Osaka Gas office if you want to have it changed.
On white meters, times will differ depending on whether or
not the seal attached to the bottom face of the meter has
a "10" inscription.
Precautions for Use
* If the amount of gas being used changes because an appliance
is turned on or off or there is a change in the gas flow rate,
the continuous use time is cleared and re-started from zero.
* The gas supply will not be cut off in the case of an appliance
that uses a small amount of gas (portable gas burner or the
like).
* This function does not prevent the bath water from being
overheated or pots from being burned dry. |
 |
| * For meters that have a "G" or "KG"
designation following a size designation on their face |
If the gas flow continues unchanged for a
long period of time (more than 12 hours), it will be detected
by the microcomputer, which will then cut off the gas supply
at the meter. (This function can be turned off if you will be
cooking with a constant gas flow for more than 12 hours. If
the function is turned off, a label will be attached to the
meter to notify you of this.)
* Settings can be changed depending on how you are using your
gas appliances. To change settings, contact your nearest Osaka
Gas office. |
