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 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 filter, 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.
Attention! The metal wires
are included in the carbon
filter packing and not on
the hood.
• 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.
