What it means

Plain-English answer

The LP burner did not light or the controls could not confirm that it remained lit. The owner manual starts with propane supply checks and then directs unresolved cases to service.

Owner-safe checks

What to check first

  1. 01

    Confirm the propane tank valve and the refrigerator manual shutoff valve are open.

  2. 02

    Check whether another propane appliance operates normally.

  3. 03

    Follow the model manual if air may be present after a tank change; never purge propane indoors.

Safety boundary

Stop and call a technician when

  • You smell propane: avoid sparks and flames, leave the area, and seek qualified help.
  • The code returns after confirming the supply.
