Question 8

How to install the charcoal filters on the GORENJE WHI649EB hood?

Accepted Answer

To install the circular charcoal filters on your GORENJE WHI649EB hood, first ensure that the appliance is turned off and unplugged. This hood is equipped with a recirculation version that uses active charcoal filters to neutralize unpleasant cooking odors.

The installation procedure for the filters is simple: you have two circular charcoal filters that need to be placed on either side, directly on the two grids protecting the fan blades. Once in position, turn each filter clockwise until it is securely fixed. To remove them, simply perform the same operation in reverse (counterclockwise).

Important: these active charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, washed, or regenerated. You must replace them completely, at least every 4 months. The exact duration before replacement depends on the type of cooking practiced and the regularity of cleaning the grease filter. When the grease filter (located at the front) becomes saturated, it also reduces the efficiency of the charcoal filter, hence the importance of regular maintenance.

To access the grease filter before the charcoal filters, simply pull the small spring handle. You can clean the grease filter in the machine (short program, moderate temperature) or in the dishwasher to maintain the overall efficiency of the filtration.

Question 9

How to effectively clean the glass door of the GORENJE BSA6747A04BG built-in oven?

Accepted Answer

To effectively clean the glass door of your GORENJE BSA6747A04BG built-in oven, always start by waiting for the appliance to cool completely. This oven has a door cooling system that reduces its surface temperature, but it may remain hot after use.

The basic cleaning method involves preparing a solution of warm water and mild soap or white vinegar. Soak a non-abrasive cloth or soft sponge in this solution, then gently wipe the glass surface in circular motions to remove stains, cooking residues, and grease deposits. Rinse with a clean damp cloth to remove any soap or vinegar residues, then dry with a soft cloth to avoid streaks.

Important: Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners, nor sharp metal scrapers, as they can scratch the glass surface and lead to breakage. Also, avoid any high-pressure or steam cleaners, which could cause electrocution.

For a more thorough cleaning, your GORENJE BSA6747A04BG oven allows you to remove the glass panes from the door for cleaning from the inside. Fully open the door, then flip the safety levers on the hinges 90 degrees towards the door. Then close the door at a 45-degree angle and lift it to remove it. Remove the air seal by gently pulling it towards you, then lift and remove each glass pane starting from the top. This method allows you to clean the internal surfaces that accumulate deposits.

For stubborn stains or if you regularly use steam injection cooking, the Aqua Clean program of your oven can help. This program uses 0.4 liters of hot water poured into a tray on the first rack, then runs for 30 minutes to loosen dirt. After the program, wipe away residues with a soapy damp cloth and rinse well. Repeat manual cleaning if necessary. This integrated catalytic cleaning system in the oven greatly facilitates regular maintenance of the cavity.

Regular maintenance is recommended: clean the glass door whenever necessary, and leave the door open after use to allow the oven to cool to room temperature. This prevents limescale buildup and makes future cleaning easier. When cleaning the interior cavity and its accessories, use hot water and mild soap with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge.

Question 10

How to switch the GORENJE DF 6316 BX hood to air recirculation mode?

Accepted Answer

The GORENJE DF 6316 BX hood is designed to operate in two versions: external ventilation or internal recirculation. To switch to air recirculation mode, you need to install the compatible activated charcoal filters. Here’s how to proceed:

Prerequisite: you must obtain the compatible activated charcoal filters, available from Gorenje technical service or retailers. This hood requires one filter on each side.

Installation of activated charcoal filters:

Remove the two metal grease filters (one on each side) by pulling on the spring release handles.
Attach an activated charcoal filter on each side by hanging it directly onto the hood at the designated locations (Fig. 20 of the manual).
Replace the metal grease filters over the charcoal filters.

Modification of the ventilation system: unlike the ventilation mode, the recirculation mode does not need a duct leading outside. If your hood is currently equipped with a duct attached to the connection flange (above the hood), you can remove it or completely close it off. The hood will draw air from the kitchen, filter it through the grease and charcoal filters, and then release purified air back into the room.

Important maintenance: the activated charcoal filter should be replaced approximately every 4 months, depending on how often the hood is used. Unlike the grease filter, the charcoal filter cannot be cleaned or regenerated: it must be completely changed. You will notice a decrease in efficiency after several months of use, indicating the saturation of the charcoal.

Once the filters are installed and the duct removed, simply turn on the hood. It will now operate in recirculation mode with a maximum airflow of 161 m³/h. The 3 speeds will allow you to adjust the ventilation level according to your needs.
