Abnormal Recycle: Fan failed during Main Flame Establishing Period. An abnormal recycle was recorded because the fan failed during the main flame establishing period, and this alert reports the recycle event. The table classifies it as Alert.
If a carbon-monoxide alarm sounds
- Leave the building immediately and get fresh air.
- Call 911. Do not go back inside until emergency services say it is safe.
- Have every fuel-burning appliance inspected before use.
Only after that, call ROMA about the boiler. Official guidance: Health Canada on carbon monoxide.

Why a code is not a diagnosis
A venting or air-supply code points at the combustion-air path: a blocked terminal, a restricted flue, a failed fan, or a condensate restriction. It does not say which, and running an appliance with a blocked flue is unsafe.
Safe things to observe
- If a carbon-monoxide alarm sounds anywhere in the building, leave immediately and call 911 from outside.
- From a safe distance, check that the vent terminal and combustion-air inlet are not blocked.
- Do not run the appliance while a blockage is suspected.
Do not
- Do not put anything into the vent or air-intake openings.
- Do not remove or modify vent pipe.
How professional service helps
- A technician inspects the full vent and combustion-air path, clears blockages and checks the fan.
- Combustion and safety devices are verified with an analyser and the manufacturer's procedure after any repair.

Frequently asked questions
Is this code a carbon-monoxide danger?
The code relates to combustion or venting, so treat any CO alarm as an emergency and call 911 from outside. The appliance itself should be checked by a technician before it runs again.
Can I clear this code myself?
Clearing a code without fixing its cause usually just brings it back. Note the code, check the safe items on this page, then call a licensed technician. If your appliance manual describes a user reset for this exact code and it stays away, no call may be needed.
