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. 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 dishwasher. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
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.

certified electrician or an authorized Avanti Products service center
