# Bertazzoni refrigerator: The water filter symbol, flashing or beeping

### This is an indicator, not an error code

A timer rather than a measurement. On the built-in columns the filter symbol flashes and beeps at 180 days; on the French-door machines the icon lights at 330 days and starts flashing at 360. Neither is reading the filter — both are counting.

It is on this page because it is what somebody is actually looking at when they go searching. Most of this maker’s equipment publishes no code at all, and an appliance that flashes at you is still telling you something — it simply is not telling you a number.

If you are here because you searched for the **Bertazzoni refrigerator water filter**, the short answer is six months and a counter that has to be cleared by hand.

### What to do

- Change the filter. Six months is the maker's interval and on South Florida water it is not generous.
- Reset the counter afterwards, or the machine goes on believing the old filter is fitted. On the columns it is a five-second hold of the select control; on the French-door machines a three-second hold of the filter control.
- Flush the new filter for several minutes before drinking or making ice from it.
- A restricted filter shows up in the ice first — small, hollow, slow cubes — long before the water tastes different.

### What the repair is

Conditions like this one end at [Column panel & door alignment](https://bertazzonimiami.support/services/column-panel-and-door-alignment/) more often than anywhere else. The figure on that page is a starting point; the exact cost is confirmed after an on-site diagnostic and agreed in writing before anything is opened.
