Operating Principles
The Frigidaire PureAir AF-2 filter utilizes advanced carbon technology to continuously circulate and purify the air inside your refrigerator. As air passes through the filter, activated carbon particles effectively trap and neutralize odor-causing molecules, preventing them from contaminating other food items and maintaining a consistently fresh interior environment.
Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and continuous odor elimination, it is recommended to replace your Frigidaire PureAir AF-2 air filter every 6 months, or as indicated by your refrigerator's filter status indicator. Regular replacement ensures the carbon technology remains effective in trapping odors and keeping your refrigerator air fresh.
