Introduzione
The KKT KOLBE K600 active carbon filter is an essential component for extractor hoods operating in recirculation mode. This filter is designed to purify the air by effectively removing cooking odors and other airborne particles, ensuring a fresh kitchen environment. Each package contains two (2) K600 active carbon filters, which are original KKT KOLBE spare parts.
For optimal performance, regular replacement of the active carbon filter is crucial. This manual provides detailed instructions for installation, maintenance, and general information regarding the K600 filter.

Installazione
The KKT KOLBE K600 active carbon filter is designed for easy installation into compatible extractor hoods. Please refer to your specific extractor hood's instruction manual for detailed, model-specific installation steps. The general procedure involves locating the filter housing, removing the old filters, and inserting the new K600 filters.
- La sicurezza prima di tutto: Before beginning installation, ensure the extractor hood is disconnected from the main power supply to prevent electrical hazards.
- Alloggiamento del filtro di accesso: Open the grease filter grille or access panel of your extractor hood to expose the filter housing.
- Rimuovi i vecchi filtri: Carefully remove the used active carbon filters. Note their orientation for correct installation of the new filters.
- Inserisci nuovi filtri: Place the new KKT KOLBE K600 active carbon filters into the designated slots or twist-lock mechanisms. Ensure they are securely fitted.
- Chiudi pannello di accesso: Close the grease filter grille or access panel.
- Ripristina alimentazione: Reconnect the extractor hood to the main power supply.

Operazione
Once installed, the KKT KOLBE K600 active carbon filter operates automatically whenever the extractor hood is in use in recirculation mode. Air drawn into the hood passes through the active carbon granules within the filter. These granules absorb cooking odors, smoke particles, and other impurities, releasing cleaner, odor-neutralized air back into the kitchen. The filter does not require any manual operation beyond its initial installation and periodic replacement.
Manutenzione
To maintain optimal air purification and odor neutralization, the KKT KOLBE K600 active carbon filter must be replaced regularly. Active carbon has a finite absorption capacity, and once saturated, its effectiveness diminishes.
- Frequenza di sostituzione: It is recommended to replace the active carbon filter every 6 a 9 mesi.
- Factors Affecting Frequency: The actual replacement interval may vary depending on your cooking habits (e.g., frequency of cooking, types of food prepared) and the intensity of use of the extractor hood. Heavy cooking or frequent use may necessitate more frequent replacement.
- Disposizione: Used active carbon filters should be disposed of according to local waste disposal regulations.

Risoluzione dei problemi
If you experience reduced effectiveness in odor neutralization or air purification, consider the following:
- Reduced Odor Absorption:
- Filter Saturation: The most common reason for reduced performance is a saturated active carbon filter. Check the last replacement date and replace the filters if they are due or overdue.
- Installazione non corretta: Ensure the filters are correctly and securely installed in the extractor hood, allowing air to pass through them efficiently. Refer to the "Installation" section.
- Rumori insoliti:
- Loose Filters: Check if the filters are properly seated and secured. Loose filters can vibrate and cause noise.
If issues persist after checking these points, consult your extractor hood's manual or contact KKT KOLBE customer support.
