Setup and Installation
Installing the EVAYP active carbon filters is a straightforward process. Always refer to your cooker hood's specific instruction manual for detailed steps, as procedures may vary slightly between models.
- Safety First: Before beginning installation, ensure your cooker hood is completely disconnected from the power supply to prevent electrical hazards.
- Locate Filter Compartment: Identify the filter compartment within your cooker hood. This is typically located behind the grease filters.
- Remove Old Filters: If old carbon filters are present, carefully remove them. Note their orientation for correct installation of the new filters.
- Insert New Filters: Place the new EVAYP active carbon filters into the designated slots. Ensure they are securely fitted and properly aligned. The rectangular shape of these filters makes them easy to position.
- Secure Compartment: Close and secure the filter compartment cover or re-install the grease filters, depending on your cooker hood model.
- Reconnect Power: Once the filters are securely installed, reconnect your cooker hood to the power supply.

Operating Instructions
Once installed, the active carbon filters operate automatically as part of your cooker hood's recirculation system. They work by filtering the air that passes through them, trapping odors and impurities before the air is recirculated back into the kitchen.
No specific user interaction is required for the filters to function beyond their initial installation and periodic replacement. Ensure your cooker hood is used according to its manufacturer's guidelines for optimal air purification.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance of your active carbon filters is essential for the continued efficiency and longevity of your cooker hood. Unlike grease filters, active carbon filters cannot be washed or regenerated; they must be replaced.
- Replacement Frequency: It is recommended to change the active carbon filters approximately every 6 months. However, this frequency may vary depending on your cooking habits and the intensity of use of your cooker hood. Heavy cooking or frequent use may necessitate more frequent replacement.
- Signs of Saturation: If you notice a decrease in odor absorption or persistent cooking odors in your kitchen, it is a strong indicator that the active carbon filters are saturated and require replacement.
- Grease Filter Maintenance: Ensure your cooker hood's grease filters are also regularly cleaned or replaced. A clogged grease filter can reduce the effectiveness of the carbon filters and strain the cooker hood motor.
Troubleshooting
Most issues related to active carbon filters are resolved by timely replacement. Consider the following if you encounter problems:
- Persistent Odors: If cooking odors persist despite using the cooker hood, the active carbon filters are likely saturated and need to be replaced. Ensure the new filters are correctly installed.
- Reduced Airflow: While primarily related to grease filters, severely saturated carbon filters can also impede airflow. Check both types of filters.
- Unusual Noise: If the cooker hood makes unusual noise, ensure all filters (grease and carbon) are correctly seated and not obstructing the fan.
If problems persist after replacing the filters and checking installation, consult your cooker hood's manufacturer manual or contact a qualified technician.

As consumable replacement parts, active carbon filters typically do not come with an extended warranty. However, if you receive filters that are damaged or defective upon arrival, please contact your retailer or the manufacturer, EVAYP, immediately for assistance.
