When to change the fridge air filter

The air filter sits in the airflow inside the fridge and traps odours that build up from stored food, so smells from cheese, onions or leftovers don't spread to everything else. Like any odour filter it gradually fills up and stops working, which shows up as stale smells, butter or milk picking up other flavours, or a musty smell when the door opens. Changing it on a regular schedule, rather than waiting for smells, keeps the fridge fresher. Your user manual gives the replacement interval Electrolux recommends for your model.
