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 carbon filter
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
100ºC.
After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be
replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.
• Fitting
Fit the charcoal filter on the rear side of the grease filter, fix it with
two metal wires. Fig. 6.
• 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.
