 Prevention of explosion
In the event of a gas leak, ventilate properly by letting indoor gas out. Refrain from using an electric switch or a heat source.
In an airtight space where a lot of dust is incurred, install a dust collector and avoid using a heat source.
Avoid excessive use of home electronics, boiler, etc. which are likely to be overheated. Check safety valves etc. all the time.
Avoid overheat of batteries for cellular phones, notebooks, etc. Do not keep such batteries with metal substances. Avoid excessive pressure.
Make a hole in an explosive container such as portable butane gas, hair spray etc. and discharge the remaining gas before throwing it away.
Do not leave flammable or combustible materials such as a gas lighter etc. inside the car during the summer season.
When a suspected explosive is found, do not attempt to disassemble. Call the nearby police station or military unit.
 During an explosion
Rapidly take shelter out of a building against a secondary explosion.
During an explosion, you may suffer some hearing difficulties due to the roaring sound. Cover your ears as you take shelter.
Move quickly to a safe place such as a far place, a covered wall etc.
Be careful of broken pieces or falling objects as well as suffocation from smoke or gas.
Move injured persons first to a safe place and take emergency measures.
Do not use an electric switch or a heat source to prevent additional explosions. Close gas valves and open the window for natural ventilation.
