5.5 Cleaning the long-life activated charcoal filter
Long-life activated charcoal filters are only used in the recirculation
model.
The long-life activated charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated. With nor-
mal use the long-life activated charcoal filter should be cleaned every other
month or whenever the indicator light flashes. It can be cleaned in a dish-
washer at 65°C (select an «intensive» or «heavy soiling» wash programme).
Wash the filter separately so that it does not become clogged with food
particles. If it is not possible to wash the filter in a dishwasher, soak it in 60°C
water with a little washing-up liquid for one hour. Then rinse well. To reactivate
the activated charcoal, dry the filter without the frame in the oven.
▸ Select top/bottom heat or hot air and set the temperature to 100 °C. Place
the filter on a wire shelf and allow to dry for 60 minutes.
After about three years the long-life activated charcoal filter must be re-
placed because its ability to absorb odours will be reduced. The spent
long-life activated charcoal filter can be disposed of in the household
waste.
