Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must
be replaced. Order Part No. WB2X9883 from
your GE supplier.
If the model is not vented to the outside,
the air will be recirculated through a
disposable charcoal filter that helps
remove smoke and odors.
The charcoal filter should be replaced
when it is noticeably dirty or discolored
(usually after 6 to 12 months, depending on
usage).
To Remove the Charcoal Filter
To remove the charcoal filter, first disconnect
power at the main fuse or circuit breaker,
or pull the plug. Remove the top grille
by removing the two screws that hold it
in place.
You may need to open the cabinet doors to
remove the screws.
Slide the filter toward the front of the oven
and remove it.
To Install the Charcoal Filter
To install a new charcoal filter, remove
plastic and other outer wrapping from the
new filter.
Insert the filter into the top opening of the
oven as shown, maneuvering it behind the
plastic grille until it fits squarely into place.
It will rest at an angle behind the plastic
grille on two side support tabs and in front
of the right rear tab. Replace the grille and
two screws. Reconnect power.
Remove 2 grille screws to remove
the grille.
