Hotpoint HX901X manual Replacing the Activated Carbon Filter Recirculation Version

CARE AND CLEANING

REPLACING THE ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER (RECIRCULATION VERSION)

The filter is not washable and must be replaced (see NOTE below).

•Remove the metal grease filters.

•Remove the saturated activated carbon filters ‘O’ Fig. 15, by turning them clockwise and then removing them from the guide pegs on the outdoor venting assembly.

•Dispose of the carbon filters.

•Fit the new filters making sure that the holes fit well around the guide pegs of the outdoor venting assembly. Turn them anti-clockwise until you hear them click into position.

•Replace the metal grease filters.

NOTE: If the hood is used in the recirculation version with carbon filters to purify exhaust fumes, the microprocessor which is the heart of the system, must first be ‘informed’ that it is managing a cooker hood in recirculation mode. To do this:

•Switch off the hood.

•Press and hold Key 4 for more than 5 seconds. When the key is pressed ‘-’ will appear on the display (indicating that the hood is not using the carbon filter). After the 5 seconds this becomes a ‘C’ on the display (indicating that the hood is using the carbon filter).

When set to using carbon filters, every 120 hours, the microprocessor will indicate with a flashing ‘C’ on the display that the carbon filters need to be replaced.

After replacing the carbon filters, cancel the warning message as follows:

•Switch off the hood.

•Press and hold Key 3 for more than 5 seconds. When the key is pressed the letter ‘C’ will appear on the display, after the 5 seconds the letter disappears and the microprocessor starts a new 120 hour count down to the next warning message.
