INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS LEVELINg THE WASHER The drum of your new washer spins at very high speeds, up to 1,300 RPM. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be a perfectly level, solid surface. NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to level the washer. Extending the leveling feet more than necessary can cause the washer to vibrate. • All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the floor. Rock the washer gently from corner to corner to make sure that the washer does not rock. If you are installing the washer on the optional pedestal, you must use the leveling feet on the pedestal to level the washer. The washer's leveling feet should be fully retracted and locked into position with the locknuts. Level Leveling Feet Leveling Feet 1 Position the washer in the final location, taking special care to not pinch, strain, or crush the water and drain lines. Place a level across the top of the washer. Raise Lower 2 Loosen the locknuts on all 4 leveling feet until you can turn the feet with the included wrench. Turn clockwise to raise the washer or counterclockwise to lower it. 14 Tighten all 4 locknuts securely 3 Once the washer is level from side to side and front to back, tighten all locknuts securely. Make sure that all 4 leveling feet are in firm contact with the floor. NOTE: To make sure that the washer is properly level, run the washer with a test load: place approximately 6 pounds of laundry in the machine. Then press POWER, press RINSE+SPIN, and then press the START/PAUSE button. See the following sections for additional information on cycle selection and operation. Verify that the washer does not rock or vibrate excessively during the spin cycle. If the washer vibrates or shakes, adjust the leveling feet until the washer is stable and retest.
