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 for UK
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, we recommend that they should be replaced
approximately every three months or more often if the hood is used for more than
three hours per day.
• Cleaning/replacing the carbon filter not for UK
Unlike other carbon filters, the LONGLIFE carbon 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 carbon, 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 unscrewing it from the hood g
(Fig. 4). Insert the charcoal filter inside the frame and put all parts back in their place.
• 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.
