Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before you call anyone, if you smell gas, don't check anything yourself — shut off the gas supply valve if it's safely reachable, open windows, and don't touch switches or open flames. Also, if it's safe to do so from outside, note whether the smell is near the unit only or spreading through the room. When that isn't the fix, any further diagnosis — finding the actual leak point — needs a combustible gas detector and licensed training, not a nose and a guess.
