Carbon filter
• The activated carbon filter should only be used if you want to use
the hood in its filtering function.
• To do this you will need an original AEG activated carbon filter (see
special accessories).
• Replacing the carbon filter
The activated carbon filter must normally be replaced at least once
every year. This filter cannot be washed or regenerated.
To guarantee proper absorption of odours the working volume of the
activated carbon must be proportionate to the hood air flow. In this
case the high quality of the activated carbon will ensure efficient
odour removal for approximately one year, assuming that the hood
is used normally. For this reason you should always use original
AEG filters only, making sure they are replaced when necessary.
• Mounting
1. Pull out the vapour catcher (A).
2. Remove first the rear then the front grease filters.
3. Insert the carbon filter into the lugs of the holding frame above
using the 2 red clips to retain it below, press the red clips inwards,
and insert the carbon filter in the holding frame. Fig. 3.
• Dismounting:
1. Press both red lugs upwards (towards the inside of the housing)
and remove the carbon filter downwards.
2. Clean the internal housing only with warm washing-up liquid’ suds
(never use any abrasive cleaners, brushes, or scouring agents).
• 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 activated carbon filter can be ordered from the AEG technical
assistance service.
