What Filter symbol and a power level flashing
actually means.
Touching the delayed shutdown control together with a filter control opens the interval setting on the DA 6698 W. The filter symbol and one of 1, 2, 3 or B flash, and the lit level stands for the current interval. Confirm or leave it and it closes after four minutes.

What to do when Filter symbol and a power level flashing shows on the range hoodKind of codeFilter 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.

Cleaning or replacing what catches grease and odor: mesh and baffle filters, charcoal pads on recirculating hoods, and the grease channel.

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.

What not to do
A flashing filter symbol with a level is not the saturation reminder, which is a steadily lit symbol. Several level lights flashing while you hold a filter key is the elapsed-time check, showing 25 to 100 percent.
