We present results of the observations of the star 15 Mon, obtained with the aim of checking the impact of red leaks in the UV (and U-band) and two narrow-band filters on ACS CCDs. The red leak in the F220W, F250W and F330W filters appears to be smaller than measured in pre-flight tests. We derive updated passbands for the three filters and we present the updated correction table for different spectral types. The off-band flux in two narrow-band filters (F658N and F502N) is not measurable with the performed observations, thus we conclude that the red leak in narrow band filters is negligible.
