Recirculation models of our BORA cooktop extractor systems and our BORA X BO steam ovens are equipped with a BORA activated charcoal filter. It is essential in these products as otherwise odours would be released (back) into the room.
The BORA activated charcoal filter can be accessed through a cover flap. On the BORA Basic compact systems and in the BORA Pure range, the activated charcoal filter is in the centre of the cooktop beneath the air inlet opening.
No. Activated charcoal filters cannot be cleaned. When the filter service life is up, they must be changed.
We recommend the original BORA odour filters, which are precisely tailored to the airflow rate of your system and guarantee efficient odour elimination even during intensive cooking.
