GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of a malfunction or breakĆ
down, grounding will reduce the risk of
electrical shock by providing a path of
least resistance for the electric current.
This appliance features a cord with an
equipmentĆgrounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet
which has been properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local
regulations and ordinances.
d WARNING
Improper connection of the
equipment grounding conductor
may result in electric shock. Have
the appliance checked by
a qualified electrician or service
technician if you are in doubt as to
whether the washer has been
properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with
the appliance - if it will not fit in the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
d WARNING
The washing machine must only be
connected to an individual branch
circuit via a socket which has been
properly installed and grounded.
The household electrical voltage must
correspond to the voltage specification
on the washing machine (rating plate,
see page 24).
Connection specifications as well as
the required fuses are stipulated on the
appliance rating plate.

Leveling Procedure
1. The appliance should now be in its
final position, ready for leveling
(moving the appliance after
leveling can make it unlevel again.)
Each foot of the appliance or
pedestal must be placed firmly on
the floor to prevent the washing
machine from wobbling.
Start with all four feet screwed in
as far as possible, then back
individual feet out as necessary to
level the washer.
2. Use a bubble level (24" or less in
length) to level the washer front to
back and side to side (be sure the
level fits between the edges of the
washer, and is not elevated at one
end on a ridge on the surface of
the washer.)
3. Adjust the leveling of the washer
with the four height-adjustable
feet. Level the washer as low as
possible to help reduce vibration.
q Loosen the lock nut (1 on the
illustration) by turning it
clockwise. Use the wrench
provided (or a 5/8" - 16mm
open end wrench). When you
turn the lock nut, the foot ( 2 on
the illustration) it is locked
against will turn with it. This will
extend the height of the foot.
