LEVELING THE DRYER

WARNING
w
• Wear gloves during installation.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury.
To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying
performance, it must be level. To minimize
vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the
floor must be a perfectly level, solid surface.
NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as
necessary to level the dryer. Extending the
leveling feet more than necessary can cause
the dryer to vibrate.
1 Position the dryer in the final location. Place
a level across the top of the dryer.
• All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the
floor. Gently push on the top corners of the
dryer to make sure that the dryer does not
rock from corner to corner.
Use an adjustable wrench to turn the leveling
feet. Turn clockwise to raise the dryer or
counterclockwise to lower it. Raise or lower
the leveling feet until dryer is level from
side to side and front to back.
Make sure that all 4 leveling feet are in firm
contact with the floor.
NOTE: If you are installing the dryer on the
optional pedestal, the dryer leveling feet should
be fully retracted. Use the leveling feet on the
pedestal to level the dryer.
