The natural gas valve opens vertically upwards and closes horizontally. As shown below, the natural gas valve is closed, or you can see the switch indication on the valve handle.

As the switch of the gas stove, its main function is of course to ignite and cut off the gas source leading to the gas stove. However, once the switch fails to work normally, resulting in air leakage, it is necessary to immediately close the valve in front of the cooker or the valve in front of the instrument and cut off the air supply. Then contact merchants or professionals for maintenance in time.
