Level adjustment

• Leveling the washing machine properly prevents

excessive noise and vibration.
Install the appliance on a solid and level floor surface,
preferably in a corner of the room.

• If the floor is uneven, adjust the adjustable feet as

required. (Do not insert pieces of wood, etc. under the
feet.)

NOTE: Extend the feet no more than necessary to level

the washer. The more the feet are extended, the
more the washer will vibrate.

• Make sure that all four feet are stable and resting on

the floor and then check that the appliance is perfectly
level (Use a level).

• After the washer is level, tighten the lock nuts up

against of the base of the washer. All lock nuts must
be tightened.

• It is critical to adjust the feet perfectly. This must be

done while the washer is spinning with a load. Use the
wrench (supplied) to adjust the feet until there is no
vibration. Then tighten the lock nuts to prevent further
adjustment.

NOTE: If there are vibration and noise during the spin

cycle, re-check the leveling of the washer, adjust
the feet as required, and tighten the lock nuts
securely to prevent changes in adjustment.
Run the washer with a test load to make certain
your washer is properly leveled. Put
approximately 6 pounds of laundry in the
machine. Then, press POWER, RINSE+SPIN, and
START/PAUSE, in that order. When the machine
spins at high speed, verify that it is stable. If not,
adjust the feet accordingly.

Diagonal Check

When pushing down the edges of the washing machine

top plate diagonally, the machine should not move up

and down at all. (Please, check both directions.)

If the machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate

diagonally, adjust the feet again.
