I was just wondering you know the little maintanniance button? Yes so does it go down when you media needs cleaning out or is it just when the filter ain't workin?
 
both, it can be useful sometimes but its best just to ignore it, any fish keeper will know when there their filter is clogged or broken.
 
it will be clogged and need cleaning when the water flow is reduced or pratically stopped even when on full power.

you will know you have a mechanical problem, propeller for example, when the filter makes a unusuall noise - like its fighting to stay alive, lol.
 
I used to have one of these on my 125L and that little button was permanantly up... Not a good indicator imo
