# Viking RVL ceiling hood: green light on the display

The RVL Pureline Pro ceiling hood shows white LEDs for fan speed and power mode and one green LED for the grease filter.

## What Green indicator LED actually means.

The RVL Pureline Pro ceiling hood shows white LEDs for fan speed and power mode and one green LED for the grease filter. After 20 cooking hours the green LED lights to ask for a filter cleaning. If the count is not reset after cleaning, the green LED comes on again whenever the hood is switched on.

What to do when Green indicator LED 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 Viking

Viking range hoods that have grown loud, weak or dark are looked at in place, from the lamps and switches to the blower overhead.

### What not to do

The green LED is a cleaning reminder, not a blower or wiring warning. A flashing white LED is the 10-minute run-on mode, and the fourth white LED is power mode.

## Questions about Green indicator LED.

### Can I clear Green indicator LED myself?

Protect the cooking surface, pull the bottom panel down at both sides and take out the grease filter with both hands. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My Viking ceiling hood's green light is back right after cleaning. Why?

The count was not reset. Press the two filter keys together for 5 seconds after refitting the filter; otherwise the light returns at every switch-on.

### How often should I clean the filter on a Viking ceiling hood?

Viking recommends once a month, and the green LED will prompt you after 20 cooking hours.

### Is it safe to take the filter out of a Viking ceiling hood myself?

Yes; it comes out from below once the bottom panel is pulled down at both sides. Cover the cooking surface first and use both hands on the filter.
