Resetting to extend lamp life temporarily

All UV lamps need to be replaced every 9,000 hours (approx. 1 year) of continuous, lit up usage. Newer models will have a reminder "beep beep" alarm to tell you it's time to replace the UV lamp and service the system. If you can't replace the UV lamp right away when it comes due, you can silence the alarm by doing the following:

WITH A RESET BUTTON --- 

1. Press and hold reset button for a loooonnng slow count of five seconds and release. This will silence alarm for 7 days. You can do this up four times before it will no longer silence and must be changed.

OR

WITHOUT A RESET BUTTON,  OR RESET DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK . . .

1. Unplug UV at outlet and wait 10 long seconds.
2. Then, while pressing down reset button of UV power supply (if it has one), plug UV back in and wait for the following (depending on UV power supply model): solid beep and then it silences, or solid beep and the words on LED display "reSET" are lit up. As soon as this occurs, take finger off reset button.
3. The beeping should stop and lamp should light up. If it does not, it may be that the power supply has been damaged from the outage, or more rarely, the UV lamp is burnt out.
