16 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS LEVEL THE WASHER The tub of your new washer spins at very high speeds. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be a 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. • Before installing the washer, make sure that the floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oil so the washer feet cannot slide easily. Feet that move or slide on the floor can contribute to excessive vibration and noise due to poor contact with the floor. the cabinet side meets the top cover. Do not place the level on the top of the lid. Using these surfaces will result in the washer being unlevel. Side to Side Front to Back All four feet must rest solidly on the floor. Attempt to rock the washer from corner to corner to make sure that all four feet are in firm contact with the floor. 1. Position the washer in its final location, taking special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the water and drain lines. Place a level across the top of the washer. Lower Raise • If the leveling feet have been adjusted as much as possible and the washer is still not level, use the risers to lift the back leg(s) of the washer to help level it. To use, press the riser onto the leg. You can stack up to three risers under one leg. Raise Lower 2. Adjust the leveling feet. Turn clockwise to raise the washer or counterclockwise to lower it. WARNING • Using the washing machine without leveling it may result in malfunction caused by the production of excess vibration and noise. • Use the leveling feet only when you level the washing machine. If you raise the leveling feet unnecessarily, it may cause abnormal vibration of the washing machine. 3. To make sure that the washer is properly level, open the lid and look from above to see if the tub is centered. If the tub is NOT centered (as shown in the drawing with the X through it), readjust the front feet. If you have a level, check your washer with the level. • To check if the washer is level from side to side, place a level on the back edge of the lid. • To check if the washer is level front to back, place a level at the side of the washer on the edge where
