How do I distinguish the new valves and magnet assemblies from the recalled ones?

	All recalled 7000 gas valves have a date code from 0306 through 0436, so valves with earlier or later codes are not being recalled.
	All 7000 Series replacement valves are marked on the valve body with a black letter in a circle near the magnet and a green stripe on the inlet of the valve.

	In addition, the replacement magnet assemblies are marked on the housing with a black letter in a circle.
	Finally, the heads of the magnet assemblies for the 7000 standard and 7000 HC have a green stripe which will remain visible once the new magnet is installed.

If the gas valve falls within the date codes of 0306 through 0436 and does not have the markings shown above, please follow the safety precautions below and call 800-232-9389 to arrange service.

Safety Precautions: As with any gas appliance, if you smell gas near the appliance or in the building, immediately leave the area and call your gas company or a certified gas technician to investigate the cause. If you do not smell gas, check the pilot lights on your gas appliances. If any pilot lights are out, do not attempt to relight. Have the appliance examined by a qualified technician. If the pilot is functioning normally (or if the gas supply to the appliance is shut off), you will need to determine if your gas appliance has a valve that is being recalled.
