Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when
using your dishwasher, follow these basic precautions:
Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
DANGER or WARNING: Risk of child entrapment.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
dishwashers are still dangerous. . . even if they will “just sit in the garage a few days.”
Before you throw away your old appliance: Take off the doors. Leave the shelves in
place so that children may not easily climb inside.
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the dishwasher.
Never clean dishwasher parts with flammable fluids.
Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other dishwasher.
Plug the dishwasher into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not
under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Any questions concerning power and or grounding should be directed toward a certified
electrician or an authorized Avanti Products service center
-Save these instructions-
Electrical Connection
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord
supplied.
Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.
Never use a two-prong grounding adapter.
Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced
with a 3-prong receptacle in accordance with applicable electrical codes.
This dishwasher requires a standard 110/120 volts A.C.~/60hz electrical outlet with three-prong
ground.
The cord should be secured behind the dishwasher and not left exposed or dangling to prevent
accidental injury.
Connect to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system: or run an equipment grounding terminal or
lead of the appliance.
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your dishwasher unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance form the power supply before
attempting any maintenance. Note: Turning the dishwasher off does not disconnect the appliance
from the power supply. We recommend having a qualified technician service your appliance.
Warning
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is
damaged, have it replaced by an authorized Avanti Products service center.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance, if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Water Heater Safety
Under certain conditions hydrogen may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two
weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by
turning on all hot water faucets and allow them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any
electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any
built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or
appliance during this process.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
WARNING
READ FOR PROPER USE
Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For plastic
items not so marked, check the manufacturer recommendations.
Use only detergent and rinse additives designed for an automatic dishwasher. Using detergent that
is not specifically designed for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher to fill with suds.
Keep children away from detergent and rinse aid, keep children away from the open door of the
dishwasher, there could still be some detergent left inside.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
During installation, the power supply must not be excessively bent or flattened.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher.
Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. Open the door
very carefully if the dishwasher is operating, there is a risk of water squirting out.
Do not place any heavy objects or stand on the door when it is open. The appliance could tip
forward.
When loading items to be washed:
1)
Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal;
2)
Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
When using your dishwasher, you should prevent plastic items from contacting with heating
element.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or
similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
Please dispose of packing materials properly.
Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
Remove the door when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.

OVERFLOW PROTECTIONS
Our Avanti dishwasher has an overfill protection device which could automatically shut off the inlet valve and start
the drain pump if the water overflows. In the event of an overflow, the system display will flash “F1” and will
attempt to drain the water. If the overflow stops and the system drains the water the “F1” will disappear.
If the system cannot stop the overflow condition, turn off the main water supply before calling a servicer. If there
is water in the base pan because of an overfill or small leak, the water should be removed using a a sponge
before restarting the dishwasher.
WATER CUT OFF - WARNING
If during a wash cycle the water main is cut-off or turned off and the machine cannot take in water the display
will flash “FF”. As long as the condition or lack of water remains the display will continue to flash “FF”, once
the water is returned to the unit, it will return to normal working mode.
LOSS OF ELECTRIC POWER - WARNING
If during a wash cyle the electricity is lost or turned off or the door of the machine has been opened, the
machine cannot operate normally, the machine will return to normal working mode after 8 seconds once the
10
power has returned and if the internal temperature of the unit is above 113ºF.
DETERGENT DISPENSER
TO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DETERGENT DEPOSITS DO NOT ADD EXCESS AMOUNT OF
DETERGENT AS YOUR DISHWASHER HAS A SPECIALLY DESIGNED WATER SOFTNER.
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the
“Wash Cycle Table”. Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than conventional dishwashers.
Generally, only one teaspoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load, heavily soiled items may need
more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could become damp
and not dissolve properly.
Amount of Detergent to Use
IF THE WATER IN YOUR AREA IS NOT TOO HARD, YOU MAY ALSO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF
DEPOSITS BY DETERGENT
The amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in the water hardness of your area. To determine
the water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or area water softening company. The harder
the water, the more detergent you may need. Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use
by small amounts until you find the correct amount.
Proper Use Of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwasher. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put
powder detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.
Rinse Aid Dispenser
•
Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse-aid dispenser is located on the door next to the
detergent dispenser. Fill the rinse-aid dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black (approximately
100ml of liquid rinse-aid). Be sure not to overfill the dispenser as this will cause over-sudsing. Wipe away any
spills with a damp cloth. Keep in mind that if you have soft water, you may not need to use a rinse-aid as it may
cause a white film to develop on your dishes.
•
To open the dispenser, lift up the Rinse Aid reservoir cover as shown below.
•
Pour the rinse-aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
•
Replace the cover after filling.
•
The rinse-aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can
leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing the water to “sheet” off the dishes.
11
Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser
A measured amount of rinse aid is released during the final rinse. As with detergent, the amount of rinse aid
needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. Too much rinse aid can result in
lather of foaming and cause cloudiness or streaks on your dishes. If the water in your area is very soft, you may
not need rinse aid. If you do, you can dilute the rinse aid with an equal amount of water.
When To Refill The Rinse Aid Dispenser
Refill the Rinse Aid reservoir when the Rinse Aid indicator light on the control panel is illuminated.
How to load your dishwasher
For best results, follow these loading guidelines.
Recommendations : Remove any coarse residue on dishes before placing the dishes in the machine. Start the
machine with full load.
Do not overload the drawers or place dishes in the wrong basket.
WARNING: Always place sharp utensils with the sharp point down and open utensils with their openings down.
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and teacups and
saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty). Position the dishes and
cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by putting wheels at different height into the rails.
Caution: Make sure that the rack is empty. Changing the height setting while the rack contains tableware could
cause the contents to dislodge, causing personal injury or damage to the tableware.
1) Release the latches on both the right and left tracks of the upper rack by turning them toward the outside
(illustration A).
2) Pull out the rack completely. (illustration B).
3) Place the rack into the track again at the desired height (illustration C).
4) Push the latches back into the correct position.
How To Use The Lower Rack
We recommend that you place large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower rack: pots, pans, lids,
serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure below.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the
top spray arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down. Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.
The bottom rack features fold down tine rows so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.
12
Silverware Basket
Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with handles at the bottom: if the rack has side baskets, the
spoon should be loaded individually into the appropriate slots, especially long utensils should be placed in the
horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.
Caring And Maintenance
To clean the control panel use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior use a good
appliance polish wax.
Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
Protect against freezing
If your dishwasher is to be left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to:
1.
Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or tip circuit breaker.
2.
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3.
Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)
4.
Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5.
Remove the plastic sump cover in the tub at the bottom and use a sponge to soak up water in the rubber
boot.
Cleaning The Spray Arms
It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly or hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm
jets and bearings. To remove the spray arm, screw off the nut by hand in a counter-clockwise
direction to take out the washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash the arms in
soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them
thoroughly.
Filtering System
For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump and filtering system within easy reach inside the tub. There
are three components of the filtering system: the coarse filter, the fine filter, and the main filter.
1.
Coarse Filter
Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove
an item caught in this filter, gently turn the top of the Coarse filter in a counter-clockwise direction and lift it out.
2.
Fine Filter
This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being re-deposited on the dishes
during a cycle.
3.
Main Filter
Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm
and washed down the drain.
Cleaning The Filter assembly
Turn the Coarse filter in a counter-clockwise direction.
1.
Lift the Coarse filter (b) together with the Fine Filter(a)
2.
Separate the Fine filter by lifting it out from the Course
Filter (b).
3.
Lift out the out the Main filter (c).
To replace the filter assembly follow the same steps in reverse.
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be
cleaned.
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters.
Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance
level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
WARNIING – Never run the dishwasher without the filters in
place.
13
Cleaning The Door
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent
penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner
of any kind.
Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will
scratch the finish. Some paper towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.
WARNING - Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and
electrical components. It is not allowed to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel because of the
risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.
How To Keep You Dishwasher In Shape
After every wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that
moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
No solvents or abrasive cleaning products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning
products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of
the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made
specifically for dishwashers.
When you go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and
them remove the plug from the AC socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance
slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.
Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
