Frequently Asked Questions - Bio P 90 USB ELICA

What is the minimum distance between the hood and the hob?

For an electric hob, the minimum distance is 50 cm. For a gas or mixed hob, it is 65 cm. Follow the cooker manufacturer's instructions if they are higher.

How to clean the grease filter?

The metal grease filter should be cleaned once a month. It can be washed by hand with a mild detergent or in the dishwasher on a low temperature and short cycle. After washing, dry it before putting it back.

How to reset the filter saturation indicator?

After cleaning or replacing the filters, turn the hood on and then off. Within the first minute after switching off, press and hold the button corresponding to the indicator (usually the low speed button). The light stops flashing.

How to activate the automatic mode with sensor?

Make sure the hood is off. Press the $ button (or the specific button on your panel). The hood will automatically adjust the speed according to the detected fumes. An initial calibration may be necessary (see manual).

What to do if the hood does not work after installation?

First check that the power supply is plugged in and that the circuit breaker has not tripped. Make sure the hood is properly powered on. If the problem persists, contact Elica technical support service.

How to replace the LED lamp?

The LED lamp is not user-replaceable. In case of failure, contact the authorized after-sales service for replacement.

Can I use the hood without the charcoal filter in recirculation mode?

No, in recirculation mode, the activated carbon filter is essential to neutralize odors. It must be installed and maintained properly. Without it, the air will not be filtered effectively.

How to set the delayed shut-off?

Press the delayed shut-off button (usually marked T5 on the remote control). The duration depends on the active speed: 20 min on low speed, 15 min on medium, 10 min on high. The hood will automatically turn off after this time.

Is the remote control supplied with the hood?

The remote control is an optional accessory for some models. Check with your retailer if it is included or can be purchased separately.

How to clean the remote control?

Use a damp cloth with a mild liquid detergent. Avoid any abrasive or alcohol-based products. Do not immerse the remote control in water.

Increase the speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapour and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize noise.

Use

The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Ducting version

In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.

Attention! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.

Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.

Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter,

then it must be removed.

Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).

Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.

Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.

! Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.

! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°).

! Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.

Filter version

The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before being fed back into the room.

In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal.

Installation

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

Electrical connection

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

The hood is provided with a special power cable; if the cable is damaged, request a new one from Technical Service.

Mounting

Before beginning installation:

• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.
