IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
injury when using your portable washer, follow
these basic precautions:

 Read all instructions before using the portable washer.
 Do not wash articles that have been previously c leaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with

gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explos ive substances, as they give off
vapors that could ignite or explode.

 Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the

wash water. These substances give off vapours that could ig nite or explode.

 Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produc ed in a hot-water system that has not been

used for 2 we eks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot-water system has not
been used for such a period, before using a washing machine, turn on all hot-water faucets and let
water flow fr om each for several minute s. This will release any accumulated hy d r o g e n gas. As the
gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

 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 portable washer: Take off the lid.
 Never allow children to operate, play with, or crawl ins ide the portable washer. Close supervision

of children is necessary when the washer is used near children.

 Do not reach into the washer if the agitator or inner tub is moving.
 Do not tamper with controls.
 Do not repair or replace any part of the washer or attempt any servicing unless spec ifically

recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions.

 Never clean portable washer parts with flammable fluids. The fumes can create a fire hazard or

explosion.

 Do not place the washer in steamy rooms or where the washer is directly exposed to rain.

Moisture may destroy the electrical insulation causing an electrical shock hazard.

 Do not store, use gasoline, or any other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any

other portable washer. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

 If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a

similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

If water leaks from faucet connection or washer connection, turn off water and
tighten fully using a wrench. Be careful not to over tighten and damage water
connection. Turn on water supply and make sure no leaks are present

DISCONNECTING THE INLET HOSE

Dismantling the hose directly may cause water to splash due to the possible high water pressure in
the hose, even after the faucet has been turned off. Please take off the hose as per following steps,
even if the faucet is closed:

 Turn off the faucet.
 Turn on the power and let the machine run for about 5 seconds then turn

it off.

 Remove the connecting nuts from the faucet and washing machine.

Note: If the washing machine is frequently used, it is not necessary to dis mantl e
the inlet hose to avoid possible damage to the screws.

POSITIONING THE DRAIN HOSE

Connect the drain hose to the water outlet of the washing machine then fasten it
with

a pinchcork. Sinc e only up drainage is available, drain hose can be hung i n

the basin or bathtub.
NOTE: The highest point of the drain hose must be in the height of 0.7-1.2m

 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

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.

Warning

This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is
equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the
possibility of electrical shock.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong f rom the power cord supplied.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground outlet with three-prong.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded. When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent
accidental injury.

The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performanc e and also
prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never
unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from
the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion dama ge along its length or at either end.
When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

 EXTENSION CORD

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do
not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is
absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance ext ension cord
having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at
least 10 amperes.

 SURGE PROTECTOR

Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very
susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.

If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone t o power surges /
outages; it is suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances you
use. The surge protector that you select must have a s urge block high enough to protect the
appliance it is connected to. If you have any quest ions regarding the type and size of surge protector
needed contact a licensed electrician in your are a.

Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacture r covered defect and will void your
product warranty.

BEFORE WASHING

WATER LEVEL

Prepare the wash load. Mix large and small articles in a load to get the best washing result s.
Drop articles loosely into the inner tub. Do not pack articles in or wrap them. Articles should move
freely through the wash water for best cleaning results. Articles should rollover, sink and then
reappear.
When washing very large articles, do not fill inner tub as full as with other loads. The water level in
your washer should fit the size of your wash load. Small load will use lower water levels. There must
be enough water in the inner tub to allow articles to move and turn over freely. Overloading the inner
tub can result in poor washing and rinsing. Overloading may also cause wrinkling and tearing of
articles.
