Leveling The Washer - KENMORE ELITE 796.3155 Manual De Uso Y Cuidado

LEVELING THE WASHER

The tub of your new washer spins at very high speeds.
To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,
the floor 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 floor 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 floor can contribute to
excess vibration and noise due to poor contact with the
floor.
All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the floor.
Attempt to rock the washer from corner to corner to
make sure that all four leveling feet are in firm contact
with the floor.
1. Position the washer in its final 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. Adjust the leveling feet. Turn clockwise to raise the
washer or counterclockwise to lower it.

3. To make sure that the washer is properly level, open
the lid and look from above to see if the tub is
centered. If the tub is NOT centered (as shown in
the drawing on the right), readjust the feet. If you
have a level, check your washer with the level.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
• To check if the washer is level from side to side, place
a level on the back edge of the lid.
• To check if the washer is level front to back, place a
level at the side of the washer on the edge where the
cabinet side meets the top cover. Do not place the
level on the top or the lid. Using these surfaces will
result in the washer being unlevel.
