INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
LEVELING THE WASHER
INSTALLATION OF NON-SKID PADS
(optional)
The drum of your new washer spins at very high speeds.
To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,
the oor must be a level, solid surface.
NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to
level the washer. Extending the leveling feet more than
necessary can cause the washer to vibrate.
NOTE: Before installing the washer, make
sure that the oor is clean, dry and free of
dust, dirt, water and oils so the washer feet
cannot slide easily. Leveling feet that
move or slide on the oor can contribute
to excess vibration and noise due to
poor contact with the oor. See
INSTALLATION OF NON-SKID PADS
for more information.
NOTE: If a drip pan must be used, make sure to follow the
instructions provided with the drip pan and make sure the
leveling feet are adjusted for rm and even contact with
the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to properly level the
machine may result in increased vibration and noise
during operation.
All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the oor. Rock
the washer from corner to corner to make sure that all
four leveling feet are in rm and even contact with the oor.
3. Once the washer is level from side to side and front to
back, use the adjusting wrench to tighten all four lock
nuts securely to prevent the legs from getting out of
adjustment during operation. Make sure that all four
leveling feet are in rm contact with the oor.
NOTE: To make sure that the washer is properly level, run
the washer with a test load: place a medium-sized load
of laundry in the machine. Then, press POWER, select
RINSE & SPIN, and press the START/PAUSE button.
See the following sections for additional information on
cycle selection and operation. Verify that the washer does
not rock or vibrate excessively during the spin cycle. If the
washer vibrates or shakes, adjust the leveling feet, while
the washer is spinning, until the vibrations are reduced.
Some oor surfaces are too slippery to prevent the
washer from moving on the oor during heavily
unbalanced loads. While it is normal for an occasional
load to be out of balance, excess noise and vibration can
result from the washer moving out of position. If these
conditions are encountered, follow the instructions below
for installation of the non-skid pads. These pads will help
prevent the washer from moving during heavy, out of
balance conditions, thereby reducing noise and vibration.
NOTE: The non-skid pads are included in the installation
packet
1. Position the washer in its nal location, taking special
care not to pinch, strain, or crush the water and drain
lines. Place a level across the top of the washer.
2. Loosen the locknuts on all four leveling feet with
the wrench until you can adjust the feet (wrench
appearance may vary). Use the wrench to turn the feet
clockwise to raise the washer, and counterclockwise
to lower the washer. Using a level, adjust the feet until
the washer is level from side to side and front to back.
Make sure that all four feet are in rm contact with the
oor.
NOTE: If you are installing the washer on the optional
pedestal, the washer leveling feet should be fully retracted.
Use the leveling feet on the pedestal to level the washer.
Tighten all 4 lock nuts
securely using the
wrench.
