When should I call a technician for code 1 flash?

Fuel type settings must be checked by a qualified tech. Smell gas? Leave right away, don't touch light switches or phones inside, and call your gas utility or 911 from outside. Never open a gas valve, burner, gas line, vent or flue connection, or bypass a safety switch. Repeated lockouts, scorching, soot, or a CO alarm mean shut it off and call a licensed gas technician.
