B. Check Filter Light
1. General information
The check lter mechanism works on a timer. When the canister has accumulated 25 hours of operating time, the PC board triggers the
check lter light to indicate the HEPA lter should be replaced. Pressing the “Reset” button will reset the timer and turn the light off.
If the light comes on before 25 hours of use, place the hose on a functional test canister or replace the faulty hose and recheck the light� If
the light stays on, verify when the lter was last changed and that the reset button was pressed afterward.
