Leveling Dishwasher
Check that the dishwasher is level and adjust the
leveling feet if necessary.
CAUTION
• Failure to level the dishwasher may result in
leakage, problems closing the door, or noise.
• Where the cabinet opening is narrower than
recommended (see Preparing Cabinet
Opening), the dishwasher must be carefully
leveled and aligned so that the dishwasher
is supported fully by the 3 leveling feet and
is not hanging from the installation brackets.
Failure to do so can result in leaks from the
front of the dishwasher, AE errors, difficulty in
closing the door, or failure to operate.
Checking Leveling
To check that the tub is level from front to back,
remove the lower rack and pour 169 oz. (5 L)
of water into the bottom of the tub. The water
level should be near the center of both tub lower
indentations at the front.
With the lower rack removed, place a level on the
inside wall of the tub to check that the dishwasher
is level from side to side.
• If you do not have a level, try using a
smartphone level application instead.
Make sure that the gap between the tub walls and
the door liner is the same on either side.
