Changing and cleaning the carbon filter

Only applicable for recirculation. The carbon filters absorb smells and odours.

Unlike other carbon filters, the LONGLIFE carbon filter can be cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month. 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 100º C.

The KFL 60/80 carbon filter can not be reactivated, it has to be changed after 6-8 months of normal use.
