Leveling the Dishwasher
caution
•A level unit is very important to proper operation. Be sure to level the unit front to back and side to side.
•Use caution when sliding the dishwasher on the floor. Even the plastic feet can cause damage to certain types of flooring.
The dishwasher comes with white plastic feet for the legs to help avoid damage to the kitchen floor when you slide it into place. Snap them onto the bottom of all three legs before leveling the appliance.
Do not attach the plastic feet if the installation space is the minimum required height.
To level the dishwasher:
1.Position the dishwasher in front of the cabinet opening. Loosen the retaining nuts on the dishwasher’s three feet using a crescent wrench. Turn the nuts until they are as close to the floor as possible.
2.Measure the height of the front and back of the cutout with a tape measure.
3.Adjust the feet, until the front of the dishwasher measures 1/8” (3.0 mm) shorter than the cutout height.
4.Open the door and pull the bottom rack out of the dishwasher. Check to make sure the dishwasher floor is level left to right using a level. Adjust the front legs as necessary.
5.Adjust the rear leg until the floor of the dishwasher is level front to back.
6.Tighten the rear retaining nut, but leave the front retaining nuts loose to allow for final leveling after the unit is pushed into place.
