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.
