  1. Press the E-Stop button to activate the shutdown alarm, and then pull it towards your chest to silence the alarm.
  2. Open the Breaker Panel to confirm that the E-Stop breaker is in the center position, indicating No Power/No Gas flow.
  3. Address the emergency that caused the activation of the E-Stop.
