No first gear?

I've got a Calibre Crag Mountain Bike.
It's awesome, I love riding it.

BUT... I can't get into first gear.
On the left I have 1, 2 and 3.
When I put into 1, the indicator goes past the 1 and the pedals don't seem to respond.

The bike is about 6-7 weeks old.
The problem has always been like this.

Does this sound like a fault?

Thanks.

    I'd take it back if I were you , and ask them to check it and find out what the problem is

    Are you trying to change gear without pedalling?

    Otherwise read Parktools and check the indexing.
