Charcoal filter
• The charcoal filter is already supplied and
mounted in place.
• The charcoal filter should only be used if you
want to use the hood in the recirculation
function.
• 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, on 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 maximum temperature 100º C.
After approximately three years of use, the
carbon filter should be replaced with a new one,
as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.
