Charcoal Filter - AEG 3000D Operating And Installation Manual

Charcoal filter

• The charcoal 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 charcoal filter (see special
accessories).
• Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal 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 charcoal, the filter should
be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a temperature of maximum
100º C.
After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be
replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.

knobs g, Fig.5. Insert the coal mattress inside the frame and put
all parts back in their place.

• Always specify the hood model code number and serial number

registration plate located on the inside of the unit.
• The charcoal filter can be ordered from the AEG technical assistance
service.
