Amirthaa is on a distinguished road
I've been working on the WindAroundBuildings tutorial and have been trying to just replace the geometry for start. I have replaced the original geometry with a .stl file. Now, when I run the snappyHexMesh, I get the following warning:

Reading refinement surfaces...
--> FOAM Warning :
From function Foam::refinementSurfaces::refinementSurfaces(const Foam::searchableSurfaces&, const Foam::dictionary&, Foam::label)
in file refinementSurfaces/refinementSurfaces.C at line 215
Reading "/home/amirthaa/OpenFOAM/amirthaa-10/run/WABEx2/system/snappyHexMeshDict/castellatedMeshControls/refinementSurfaces" from line 49 to line 50
Not all entries in refinementSurfaces dictionary were used. The following entries were not used : 1(av1)

My snappyHexMeshDict code:

}

meshQualityControls
{}

writeFlags

// scalarLevels

);

mergeTolerance 1e-6;

It would be useful if someone can guide me on the cause of this warning.
