Once in position, adjust the leveling legs of the dryer until it is level from left to right and front to back. Be sure to tighten the leveling leg lock nuts against the bottom of the dryer. The leveling legs must remain firmly on the floor and the dryer should not rock. The maximum slope of the dryer from left to right or front to back should not exceed 1” (2.5 cm). If the dryer is not level, and if the slope exceeds 1” (2.5 cm), a load may not tumble properly and internal sensors may malfunction.
