Hiya I was wondering if anybody could help me, I have a calor gas fire and I've just bought a new gas bottle and it's the 1st time it's been used in over a year, the pilot light is lit and it's is working on setting 2 and 3. But not lighting the middle brick (setting 1) is it still safe to use and does anybody know how I can fix this problem.
Thanks in advance

Did the centre element light on setting 1 when you last used it? It's quite
common for some of the elements to be turned off on low gas settings. If
it has a make and model name on it the instructions will be on the net
somewhere.

I'm not an expert but I have several of these fires.

If the gas bottle is very cold it can cause this problem. If you use the
fire on the other settings for a while it will probably come right.
Failing that the middle jet is contaminated. Unscrew it and clean it.
