Technical description: Burner
What causes this fault?
This message appears because the internal control board is performing a brief safety verification of the gas burner's functionality during the ignition sequence. It is a completely normal part of the boiler's startup procedure used to ensure the system is operating correctly before it begins heating. This is not a physical failure or a breakdown, but rather a standard status update from the boiler's software.
DIY fix possible
