Filter Reminder Light
(if fitted)
Your DVS
®
system is programmed to remind you when your air filter needs to be replaced.
After your DVS
®
system has been installed for approximately 12 months, the filter light on your touch
pad will begin to flash intermittently. Over the next 16 days the flashing will get faster and then the
filter light will stay ON for 1 second and OFF for 1 second. This will continue until the in-built filter
reminder timer is reset by either yourself or one of our service technicians.
How to Re-set the Filter Reminder Light
a)
If the filter reminder light is currently flashing, simply press the SUMMER/WINTER button for
approximately 5 seconds. (the filter light will flash fast in addition to the SUMMER and WINTER
lights).
b)
On the left hand side of your touch pad there is the Air Change Indicator which is controlled by
touch buttons marked MORE or LESS. Each whole glowing yellow light represents a two month time
delay, and a half light represents one month. For example, one full yellow light = 2 months, three
full lights = 6 months and so on. The maximum setting is eight full lights = sixteen months delay.
c)
To set the number of months until the air filter reminder light flashes again to remind you to
change your filter, simply press the MORE or LESS buttons on the touch pad until you reach the
required time delay setting. The recommended setting is 6 full lights = 12 months delay. If the
filter reminder light had been on then it will automatically reset to a 12 month reminder.
d)
Exit the filter reminder set-up by pressing the WINTER/SUMMER select button again until the lights
stop flashing. Your filter light is now re-set.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Controlling condensation and moisture requires both adequate ventilation and good home heating.
The greater the airflow level, the greater the level of condensation and dampness control. However, at
times during colder seasons a higher airflow will also bring a greater volume of cooler air into your
home.
We recommend you experiment to find the right balance between controlling condensation and reducing
the amount of cooler air entering your home during colder seasons.
In colder regions of New Zealand, some customers may need to use additional heating to balance the
flow of cooler air required to adequately control condensation and dampness during colder weather.
Most customers have found that additional heating in colder months is compensated by lower heating
requirements during other times of the year, due to solar heat gain from the roof space on warmer days,
and a drier home being easier and and more cost-effective to heat than a damp home.
