Important Safety Instructions
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 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 place the dryer in steamy rooms or where the dryer is directly exposed to rain. Moisture
may destroy the electrical insulation causing an electrical shock hazard.
During spinning, don’t put your hand in the spin basket: Because the spin basket is
rotating at high speed, rotating parts may injure your hand.
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.

Put your laundry into the dryer evenly. Uneven laundry may cause noise or vibration.
Before drying, check all pockets. If nails or pins remain in pockets, they may damage the dryer

Never splash water on the control panel.
Plug the dryer 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.
Selecting a Location

A hard level surface (if the surface is uneven, see “Adjusting the Leveling Legs”).
If you are going to wall mount your dryer using the wall mounting kit included (see “Wall
Mounting Instructions”).

components.
Adequate ventilation
