Level the Washer Properly leveling your washer avoids excessive noise and vibration. NOTE: Installing washer on soft floor surfaces, such as carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not recommended. 1. Slide the washer to its final location. 2. Check that all four feet are in firm contact with the floor. 3. Check the levelness of the washer by placing a level on the top edge of the washer, first side to side then front to back. Complete Installation 1. Check the electrical requirements. Be sure that you have the correct electrical supply and the recommended grounding method. See "Electrical Requirements." 2. Check that all parts are now installed. If there is an extra part, go back through the steps to see which step was skipped. 3. Check that you have all of your tools. 4. Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials. 5. Check that the water faucets are on. 6. Check for leaks around faucets and inlet hoses. WARNING If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly before tipping back. If the washer is not level, first prop the front with a wooden block and adjust the front feet height moving the hexagonal plastic part as necessary. Repeat to adjust back feet. 4. Make sure all four feet are stable and resting on the floor. Then check that the washer is perfectly level (use a level). Repeat steps 1-3 until washer is level. 5. After the washer is level, and all four feet are in firm contact with the floor, use a 9/16" (14 mm) open-end wrench to turn the locknuts on the feet, tightly against the washer cabinet. IMPORTANT: All four feet must be tightened. If the locknuts are not tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate. 6. The washer should not move front to back, side to side, or diagonally when pushed on its top edges. 7. Confirm the levelness of the washer. Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. 7. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. 8. Read "Washer Use." 9. To test and to clean your machine, make sure that there are no clothes in the washer and add one AFFRESH™ tablet to the washer drum. Select POWER, the CLEAN WASHER cycle and then select START. This cycle will take approximately 50 minutes to complete. Allow the washer to complete the entire cycle without interruption. 10
