What Grease filter signal light
actually means.

The pyramid hoods count how long the fan has been on and light a signal once 30 hours have passed. It is Monogram's prompt to wash the metal grease filters by hand or in the dishwasher. The owner's manual gives the interval but no reset steps.

Questions
about Grease filter signal light.

Can I clear Grease filter signal light myself?
With the hood off and cool, remove each grease filter by pushing it back and down with its knob. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What does the filter light on my Monogram pyramid hood mean?
The fan has run 30 hours since it was last counted, and Monogram wants the grease filters washed.
Can I machine-wash the filters from a Monogram pyramid hood?
Yes. Monogram allows hand washing in hot soapy water or the dishwasher with a non-abrasive soap.
Does the same light tell me to change the charcoal filters on my Monogram hood?
No. Charcoal filters are changed when they look dirty or discolored, usually after 6 to 12 months, and only the 30- and 36-inch models can recirculate.

Back to your everyday

Still showing Grease filter signal light?

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.
