What None
actually means.
The control needs to know whether the hood vents outside or recirculates. Holding Power Decrease and Power Increase together for 5 seconds, with the fan and lights off, toggles the setting. None confirms that no charcoal filter is fitted, and from then on the charcoal reminder is switched off.

What to do when None shows on the range hoodKind of codeMode, not a failure
The hood is doing something it was told to do, not wearing out: a delay-off timer that keeps the blower running for some minutes after the burners go off, a heat sentry that starts the fan by itself when it senses a hot pan, a Sabbath setting that locks the keys and dims the lights, or a link to the cooking surface that sets the speed on its own. No part is needed; a key sequence from the manual, or simply waiting, ends it.
Usually leads toNo repair
If your hood is ducted to the outside, leave it set to None.
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 KitchenAid's own guidance for None on its range hoods. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
If your hood is ducted to the outside, leave it set to None.
If it recirculates through a charcoal filter, repeat the 5-second two-button press until Able appears instead.
Make the change only with the fan and lights off, or the control will not accept it.
Cleared?
The code is gone and the blower pulls steam up on every speed again without a new part. If it returns this week, or the filter reminder keeps coming back right after a cleaning, mention it in the booking.
What not to do
None does not report a missing part or a failure. The grease filter reminder, Clean Grease Filter, still works with this setting.

Mode, not a failure on other makes
Wall-mount range hood
The chimney hood fixed to a bare stretch of wall above the burners, its canopy catching the rising smoke while a telescoping cover hides the duct that climbs to the ceiling.
Under-cabinet range hood
The slim hood screwed to the bottom of the wall cabinet over the burners, venting up through that cabinet or back through the wall, or cleaning the air and returning it to the room.
Island range hood
The hood that hangs from the ceiling over burners set into a kitchen island, open on all four sides, with its duct and wiring hidden inside a chimney that drops from above.
In KitchenAid's own words

Still showing None?
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.
