How to RESTART the gas meter
(picture from
Japan Gas Assosiation webpage)
Check that you have closed your gas
cock completely. Be careful of any gas leaks.
If your gas meter has stopped, a red
light will be blinking.
1. Turn the black top on the top left to the counterclockwise
direction.
2. Once the top is off there will be a button beneath it. Press the
button.
3. Put the black top back on.
4. Wait around 3 minutes. During this time, do not try to use your gas.
Check for any gas leaks at this point.
5. Check that the red
light has stopped blinking. Once it has stopped its blinking, it signals that
you have regained your gas.
