Flame Failure or 

Power Flue trip

The fire has tried to light three times and failed.

• 

Check gas supply and check other gas appliances to see if they are affected. 

If you have two separate gas cylinders, switch over to the full bottle or 

contact your gas supplier. You may need to retry igniting the fire a few times 

after re-establishing gas supply. 

• 

Check correct gas pressure to the appliance with all other appliances run-

ning

• 

Check the electrode placement in relation to the pilot flame. Ensure it is well 

enveloped in flame as per the diagram in the installation instructions. Ensure 

no small coals have dropped onto the ignition electrodes between the burn-

ers.

• 

Ensure the electrode is not contacting any metalwork including the burners 

and has the correct air gap.

• 

Check that the electrical power cable between the appliance and the power-

flue wall terminal is connected and not damaged

• 

Check that the fan inside the powerflue wall terminal is running during 

startup. This fan may need servicing if it is slowed or stalled.

Appliance Over 

Temperature 

Sensor Trip

The bimetallic snap disk mounted on the spigot seal plate at the rear of the fire 

has tripped. The possible causes for this could include:

• 

Possibly fascia panels installed incorrectly resulting in restricted air flow at 

the top of the fire.

• 

Room air fans may be slowed or stalled. Remove firebox, check that fans are 

plugged in, cleaned, and free turning

• 

The gas regulator being set too high resulting in excess heat build-up.

• 

The inlet flue not being connected and the appliance drawing warm air from 

the cavity. Check flues are securely connected at both ends.

Valve Solenoid 

Check Failure

The valve solenoids have failed the pre-ignition test. This is to detect a faulty 

valve solenoid. However, it is possible a wire has dislodged. 

• 

Check that the connections to each solenoid are secure and in place. It may 

be that the connections on the ends of the wires need to be tightened a 

little (e.g. with a pair of pliers) to ensure a robust connection to the valve 

terminal.

• 

Disconnect and reconnect the firebox connectors ensuring they are firmly 

pushed into place.

• 

It could also be that one of the solenoids on the valve inside the fire has 

failed. If this is the case the valve will need to be replaced.

Remote Cannot 

communicate 

with fire

The remote cannot communicate with the fire. Reasons for this could include:

• 

The fire being turned off “at the wall” i.e. a loss of power to the fire or the 

remote is outside of its effective radio frequency range (too far away from 

the fire). Typical remote range is 1m to 12m. 

• 

Ensure there is power to the fire by pressing the auxiliary on/off (red) button 

on the fire, then press the on/off button on the remote to clear the error.
