What Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) LED changing color
actually means.
The PVW1030 and PVW1036 have an air-quality sensor that reads changes in the air near the hood and shows them through a colored LED. The hood must be connected through the SmartHQ app before the sensor works. GE notes that candles or an open bottle of wine can change the reading even when nobody is cooking.

What to do when Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) LED changing color shows on the range hoodKind of codeHeat and grease sensors
A sensor inside the canopy has stopped telling the control a believable story: the heat sensor that starts the fan when the air above the burners gets hot, or on some hoods a sensor that reads grease or steam to set the speed. One that reads hot all the time keeps the blower running with the burners long cold; one that reads nothing leaves the automatic mode doing nothing. The sensor, its wiring and the canopy around it are checked at the visit.

Testing the sensor that starts the fan by itself when the burners get hot, so the hood starts when it should and stops when the heat is gone.
Shows up asReading 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.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from GE Profile's own guidance for Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) LED changing color on its range hoods. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
If the LED does nothing, connect the hood to Wi-Fi: hold FAN for 3 seconds and finish setup in the SmartHQ app.
If the color changes with nothing on the burners, look for other sources such as candles, and run the fan if the smell bothers you.
If the hood is online and the LED never responds, book a visit so the sensor can be checked.

What not to do
The IAQ color is a general guide to changes in the air, not a measurement to any standard, and it does not report a problem with the hood. It also does not mean the grease filters are due; that is the separate signal light.
