Safety rules for using LPG cylinders in India:

 Here are some safety rules for using LPG cylinders in India:

Storage

Keep cylinders upright in a well-ventilated area away from heat and direct sunlight. Don't store them horizontally, and keep them out of reach of children and pets. 

Purchase

Buy cylinders from authorized dealers and check the expiry date before use. 

Inspection

Regularly inspect cylinders for damage or rust. If you notice any, return the cylinder to the dealer. 

Use

Use a good quality regulator with a pressure gauge. Turn off the regulator and stove knob after use. Don't use a cylinder with a damaged or loose valve. 

Transportation

When transporting cylinders, ensure they are secure and upright. Use straps, a sturdy box, or container to secure them. Transport cylinders in a vehicle with the cargo area open to the air, and never on a passenger seat. 

Leaks

If you smell gas, open windows and doors immediately. Don't turn on electric switches, lighters, or matches. Put on the safety cap, leave the cylinder in the open, and contact your gas distributor. You can detect leaks by listening for a hissing sound or looking for icing in the area. You can also brush suspect areas with a detergent/water mixture. 

Fire

In case of a fire, use a D.C.P-type fire extinguisher or call the Fire Brigade.
