Charcoal filter
The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in the recirculation
function.
To do this you will need an original AEG charcoal filter (available from your local
Service Force Centre).
Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can be cleaned and
reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month (when
using the hood 2,5 hours per day, in avarage). The best way to clean the filter is in
the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º
C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later
causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should be dried in an
oven for 10 minutes with a temperature of maximum 100º C.
After approximately three years of use, the carbon filter should be replaced with a
new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.
Fitting
Remove the frame i which supports the filter h by turning 90° the two knobs g.
Insert the charcoal filter inside the frame and put all parts back in their place. Fig. 5.
To remove proceed in the reverse order.
Always specify the hood model code number and serial number when ordering
replacement filters. This information is shown on the registration plate located on
the inside of the unit.
The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local AEG Service Force Centre.
