What S1 steady
actually means.

The KMC canopy hoods keep a running total of blower time. After 100 working hours the S1 light comes on and stays on, asking for the metal grease filters to be cleaned.

What to do when S1 steady shows on the range hood

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for S1 steady on its range hoods. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn the lights and the blower off.

02

Take down the grease filters, wash them and let them dry before refitting.

03

Hold T3 for about three seconds until S1 flashes three times to confirm the reset.

04

If S1 comes back on right away, book a visit to check the keypad and control.

Still there?

It usually turns into range hood filter and baffle service. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

A steady S1 does not mean the blower is failing; it is a timed cleaning reminder. A flashing S1 is a different message, about the charcoal filter.

What you may
notice with it.

Questions
about S1 steady.

Can I clear S1 steady myself?
Turn the lights and the blower off. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Why won't the S1 reset on my Bertazzoni canopy hood?
The reset only works with the lights and blower off. Turn both off, then hold T3 for three seconds.
How often should I wash the filters on a Bertazzoni KMC?
Whenever S1 comes on, and at least every two months of use by Bertazzoni's schedule.
Can the filters from a Bertazzoni KMC go through a machine wash?
Yes, the KMC manual allows the dishwasher. Let them dry fully before putting them back.

Back to your everyday

Still showing S1 steady?

Three things make the booking useful: the letters or blink pattern exactly as they showed, the full model number from the label behind the filters, and whether the fan still moves air on every speed. With those, the technician arrives with half the answer already worked out.
