Miele W1930 - Manual (Page 40)

Levelling the machine
To ensure smooth operation, it is essen-
tial that the machine is level.
Failure to level the machine can result
in the machine “banging” in the spin
cycle or “walking” across the floor dur-
ing operaton. Energy and water use will
also increase.
Adjust the four leveling feet as fol-
lows:
Loosen the conternuts (item #2) on all
four legs by moving the handle of the
screwdriver to the left (see illustration).
Adjust the right rear leg to the proper
length. Use the screwdriver to turn
the counternut up until it is tight
against the bottom tray.
Move the machine to its location.
BEWARE: The washing machine is
heavier than it looks! When working
with the machine, be careful that it
does not slip or slide along the floor.
Take care not to injure yourself or dam-
age any surrounding furniture.
Shorten the front left leg so the ma-
chine is standing on the other three
legs only. Push the top front left cor-
ner diagonally to ensure that the
right rear leg is resting on the floor.
Check with a level in both planes as
shown in the illustration.
To tilt the machine toward the back,
extend the right front leg by turning
the leg to the left (see item #1).
To tilt sideways, shorten or extend
the left rear leg.
Check with a level again in both
planes. If still not level, repeat the ad-
justment.
When the position is correct, use the
screwdriver (move the handle to the
right) to turn the counternuts up on
the right front and left rear legs until
they are tight.
Extend the left front leg until it is in
contact with the floor. Add
