WARNING
~
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
or injury when using your appliance, follow
these basic precautions:
•
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
•
DANGER or WARNING:
Risk of child entrapment.
Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned
appliances 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 door. Leave the shelves
in place so that children may not easily climb inside.
•
Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl inside the appliance.
•
Never clean appliance parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire
hazard or explosion.
•
Do not store or use gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE
•
THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO BE FOR FREE STANDING INSTALLATION ONLY.
•
ALLOW 4” INCHES OF SPACE BETWEEN THE TOP AND SIDES OF THE UNIT AND A
MINIMUM OF 4” INCHES AT THE REAR, WHICH ALLOWS THE PROPER AIR

level your appliance, adjust the front leveling legs at the bottom of the appliance.
•
Locate the appliance away from direct sunlight and sources of heat (stove, heater, radiator,
etc.). Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical
consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform
properly.

Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
•
Plug the appliance 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.
