Electrical Connection
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.
-
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.
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’s recommendations.
- Use only detergent and rinse additives designed for an automatic dishwasher. Using a 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:
- Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal;
- 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 contact with heating element.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a 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.

seconds to turn the unit off.
OVERFLOW PROTECTION
Our Avanti dishwasher has an overfill protection device that 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 service. If there
is water in the base pan because of an overfill or small leak, the water
should be removed using 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 power has returned and
if the internal temperature of the unit is above 113ºF.
DETERGENT DISPENSER
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 rinses 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 maximum level (approximately 150ml 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.
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 n on the
hardness of the water in your area. Too much rinse aid can result in lather
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 a 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
heights 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.
- Release the latches on both the right and left tracks of the upper rack by turning them toward the outside (illustration A).
- Pull out the rack completely. (illustration B).
- Place the rack into the track again at the desired height (illustration C).
- 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.
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:
- Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or tip circuit breaker.
- Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
- Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)
- Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
- 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, pull the nut out by hand in an upward direction. 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.
- Lift the Coarse filter (b) together with the Fine Filter(a)
- Separate the Fine filter by lifting it out from the Course Filter (b).
- Lift 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 damaged dishes and utensils.
WARNING – Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.
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 then 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.
