INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Leveling the washing machine
The washer tub of your new washing machine
spins at very high speeds. To minimize vibration,
noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must
be perfectly level and solid.
1
Check the washing machine's level.
- Check the precise level by rocking the top
edges of the washing machine or placing
a level on the washing machine. The slope
beneath the washing machine must not
exceed 1°, and all four leveling feet must rest
firmly on the floor.
2
Turn the lower leveling feet clockwise to level
the washing machine.
- Turning the lower leveling feet clockwise
raises the washing machine.

- Push or rock the top edges of the washing
machine gently to make sure that the
washing machine does not rock.

to 3.
WARNING
y Using the washing machine without leveling,
it may result in malfunction caused by the
production of excess vibration and noise.
y If you are installing the washing machine
on the optional pedestal, you must adjust
the leveling feet on the pedestal to level the
washing machine. The washing machine´s
leveling feet should be minimized and turn
the locknuts counterclockwise to secure.
y Use the leveling feet only when you level the
washing machine. If you raise the leveling
feet unnecessarily, it may cause abnormal
vibration of the washing machine.
Using non-skid pads (optional)
If you install the washing machine on a slippery
surface, it may move because of excessive
vibration. Incorrect leveling may cause
malfunction through noise and vibration. In the
event of this, lay the non-skid pads under the
leveling feet and adjust the level.
1 Clean the floor to attach the non-skid pads.
- Use a dry rag to remove and clean foreign
objects or moisture. If moisture remains, the
non-skid pads may slip.
2
Adjust the level after placing the washing
machine in the installation area.
3
Place the adhesive side of the non-skid pad on
the floor.
- It is most effective to install the non-skid pads
under the front legs. If it is hard to place the
pads under the front legs, place them under
the back legs.
