FAQs

How often should I clean the grease filters?

It is recommended to clean the grease filters every month, or more frequently if you cook frequently.

How do I replace the carbon filters?

Refer to the user manual for instructions on how to access and replace the carbon filters. Typically, they are located behind the grease filters.

What is the AutoSwitch Off function?

The AutoSwitch Off function automatically turns off the extractor hood and lights after a set period, saving energy.

Can I use the hood without carbon filters?

No, the carbon filters are essential for the recirculating mode to remove odors. The hood will not function effectively in recirculating mode without them. They are not needed for ducted operation.

The KBT900VE uses LED lighting, providing bright and energy-efficient illumination.

How loud is the extractor hood?

The noise level ranges from 48 dB (low speed) to 71 dB (intensive speed).

Where can I find the model number?

Troubleshooting

Extractor hood not turning on.

Check the power supply and ensure the hood is properly plugged in. Check the circuit breaker.

Poor extraction performance.

Clean or replace the grease filters. Check for any obstructions in the ducting (for ducted models).

Ensure the fan blades are clear of obstructions. Check if the hood is properly mounted, as vibrations can cause noise.
