2.1.4.4. Filter Life Display
Using this option, the user can select whether the filter life is displayed or not.
Filter life is calculated based on the filter hour meter (F/H/M). The filter life display will count down according

the filter is changed, the F/H/M must be reset (please see section 2.1.4.8 to reset the F/H/M). Please note that
the life of the filter is dependent on multiple factors which include environmental air cleanliness. A dirty /
dusty environment will load the filter fast.
