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 overflow. If this occurs, 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 before restarting the dishwasher.
DETERGENT DISPENSER
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash
cycle according to the instructions provided in the “Wash Cycle
Table”. Our dishwashers use less detergent rinse aid than
conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of
detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily
soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent
just before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp
and will not dissolve properly.

Amount of Detergent to Use
If the water isn’t too hard, you may also prevent the formation of deposits by adding detergent. The
amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. 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 little by little until you find the correct amount.
Removing Hard Water Spots From Dishes
To remove hard water spots, try the following:
Run dishes through a normal wash program.
Remove all metal dishware, such as cutlery, pans, etc., from the dishwasher.
Do not add detergent.
Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set the bowl face up on the lower rack of the dishwasher.
Run the dishes through a normal wash program.
If this doesn’t work, try the same process with ¼ cup of citric acid crystals instead of vinegar.
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
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 water to “sheet” off the dishes.
Our dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid
dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill
the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until
the level indicator turns completely black. The dispenser holds about 100
ml of liquid rinse aid.
