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.
