LEVELINg THE wASHER

The drum of your new washer spins at very high speeds,
up to 1,320 RPM. 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 washer. Extending the leveling feet more
than necessary can cause the washer to vibrate.

INSTALLATION OF NON-SkID PADS (OPTIONAL)

Some floor surfaces are too slippery to prevent
the washer from moving on the floor 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.

• All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the fl oor. Rock
the washer gently from corner to corner to make sure
that the washer does not rock.
If you are installing the washer on the optional pedestal,
you must use the leveling feet on the pedestal to level
the washer. The washer's leveling feet should be fully
retracted and locked into position with the locknuts.

Once the washer is level from side to side and
front to back, tighten all locknuts securely.
Make sure that all 4 leveling feet are in firm
contact with the floor.
NOTE: To make sure that the washer is properly
level, run the washer with a test load: place
approximately 6 pounds of laundry in the
machine. Then press POWER, press RINSE+SPIN,
and then 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 until the washer is stable and retest.
