ATAG · iC, iS and iR range
5P1First ignition attempt failed
This code applies to iC Economiser, iC Combination, iS System, iR Regular. Fault codes narrow down the likely problem, but they do not replace a model-specific diagnosis.
What you can safely check
- Check whether another gas appliance works and whether a prepayment meter has credit.
- In freezing weather, visually check an accessible external condensate pipe for ice and follow the manufacturer's thawing guidance if applicable.
- Reset once only if the user manual permits it. If the code returns, arrange an engineer.
How an engineer may fix it
Test the gas supply and inlet pressure, ignition and ionisation components, condensate route, flue, gas valve and combustion settings; repair or replace the failed component.
