Long-life activated charcoal filter
When the extractor fan is switched off and the glass canopy is pulled out, all the level in-
dicators flash for 40 seconds after 160 operating hours. The saturation level has been
reached. The long-life activated charcoal filter has to be cleaned and reactivated.
Only activate this function if the appliance is being used in the recirculation mode.
