FAQs
How often should I replace these charcoal filters?
For optimal performance, it is recommended to replace the charcoal filters every 3 to 6 months, depending on how often you cook and the types of meals you prepare.
Can I wash and reuse the Electrolux charcoal filters?
No, these charcoal filters are not designed to be washed. They are disposable and must be replaced once they have reached their saturation point.
What is the difference between charcoal filters and grease filters?
Grease filters (often metal mesh) capture larger grease particles. Charcoal filters (made of carbon) are primarily used in recirculating hoods to absorb odors and finer grease particles that pass through the grease filter.
How do I know if my cooker hood uses these filters?
Check your cooker hood's user manual or look for the model number (ECFB02 or equivalent) on the appliance itself. These filters are typically used in recirculating models.
What does 'recirculating' mean for a cooker hood?
A recirculating cooker hood filters the air and releases it back into the kitchen, rather than venting it outside. Charcoal filters are essential for this type of hood to remove odors.
Are these filters compatible with all Electrolux cooker hoods?
No, compatibility is model-specific. Always verify the part number (902 979 877) and your cooker hood model against the product specifications to ensure a match.
What are the dimensions of the filters?
Each filter has a diameter of approximately 19 cm (190 mm) and a depth of 40 mm.
Troubleshooting
Cooker hood is not extracting odors effectively.
The charcoal filters may be saturated. Replace them with new ones. Ensure the filters are correctly installed and that no other blockages exist in the ducting (if applicable to your model).
New filters do not fit properly.
Double-check the model number of your cooker hood and compare it with the compatibility list for the ECFB02 filter. Ensure you are inserting the filter in the correct orientation.
Unusual noise when the cooker hood is on.
Verify that the filters are securely locked into place. Loose filters can vibrate and cause noise. If the noise persists, check for other potential issues with the hood's motor or fan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: Before purchasing, verify that your cooker hood model is compatible with the ECFB02 filter. Check your appliance's manual or the manufacturer's website for the correct replacement part number (902 979 877). These filters are designed for specific Electrolux and AEG models.
Setup:
- Ensure the cooker hood is turned off and unplugged.
- Locate the filter compartment within your cooker hood, typically at the bottom or top.
- Remove the existing charcoal filter(s). Usually, this involves unclipping or twisting them out.
- Insert the new Electrolux charcoal filters, ensuring they are securely in place and facing the correct direction as indicated by any markings.
- Reassemble any removed parts and plug the cooker hood back in.
Care: These charcoal filters are designed for single use and cannot be cleaned or washed. Attempting to wash them will damage the carbon structure and render them ineffective. They must be replaced when they are no longer efficiently filtering odors, typically every 3-6 months.
