These GE Profile wall hoods count the fan's on-time and light a signal once 30 hours have passed. It is a timed prompt to wash the metal grease filters, which can go in the dishwasher. The guide explains when it lights but not how to clear it from the keypad. GE Profile range hood display What to do when Grease filter signal light shows on the range hood ### Kind of code Filter reminders The hood has counted enough hours of fan time to ask for its filters: the mesh or baffle grease filters want a wash, or on a recirculating hood the charcoal filters want replacing. Most hoods count hours rather than measure grease, so the light comes on whether the filters are clean or not, and it stays on until it is reset with the key the manual names. A reminder that returns straight after a reset, or a hood that still pulls weakly with fresh filters, is worth a visit. ### Usually leads to Range hood filter and baffle service Cleaning or replacing what catches grease and odor: mesh and baffle filters, charcoal pads on recirculating hoods, and the grease channel. ### Shows up as Reading a Range Hood Error Code or Blinking Light A range hood error code may appear as letters and numbers on a display, a light that blinks in a pattern, a filter reminder that will not clear, or a beep with the fan refusing to start. ### Make GE Profile GE Profile hoods and downdraft vents get fixed in your kitchen, starting with a check of the breaker and the hood's own switch. ### Source GE Profile wall hood with Clean Air Sensors owner's manual 49-7000239 (PVW1030, PVW1036) GE Profile PVW1030 (30-inch pyramid chimney) and PVW1036 (36-inch) wall hoods with Clean Air Sensors, owner's manual 49-7000239. The manual does not describe how to reset the signal light. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from GE Profile's own guidance for Grease filter signal light on its range hoods. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 With the hood off and cool, push each grease filter back and down by its knob to remove it. 02 Wash the filters by hand in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher with non-abrasive soap, and let them dry. 03 Refit them in the lower set of filter holders, as GE specifies. 04 If the light stays on after cleaning, check the SmartHQ app for the hood or book a visit. ### Still there? It usually turns into [range hood filter and baffle service](https://rangehooderepair.center/services/range-hood-filter-and-baffle-service/). Book with the code and the model number. ### What not to do The signal light is a run-time count, not a measurement of airflow or a blower warning.

With the hood off and cool, push each grease filter back and down by its knob to remove it. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### How often will the filter light come on on my GE Profile wall hood? Every 30 hours of fan on-time. Heavy frying means it comes around faster in calendar terms. ### Which filter does the GE Profile signal light refer to? The metal grease filters. Charcoal filters on a recirculating setup are changed on their own schedule, usually every 6 to 12 months. ### My GE Profile filters are clean but the signal light is still on. Now what? The manual does not give a keypad reset, so look in the SmartHQ app for the hood. If the light never clears, book a visit. --- **[Read on the site: GE Profile wall hood with Clean Air Sensors: filter signal light is on](https://rangehooderepair.center/error-codes/ge-profile-grease-filter-signal-light/)** **[Book a visit with RangeHoodeRepair.center](https://rangehooderepair.center/schedule/)**
