Filters (Cont.)
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must be
replaced. Order filter no. WB02X10700. Replacement
filters can be ordered from your GE Appliances supplier.
If the hood is not vented to the outside, the air will be
recirculated through a disposable charcoal filter that
helps remove smoke and odors.
The charcoal filter should be replaced after 6 to 12
months (depending on hood usage).
To remove:
Pull down on the center of the front edge of the filter. The
filter will then slip out of the retaining tabs on the back.
