Leveling Your Washer; Connecting Inlet Water - Frigidaire FAHE4044MW0 Servicing

Leveling your washer

Excessive noise and vibration can be prevented by
properly leveling the washer.
1 With the washer within 4 feet (1 m) of its fi nal
location, use a carpenter's level to level your
washer front-to-back and side-to-side. For front-
to-back leveling, place bottom edge of the level on
the seam between the top panel and side panel.
For side-to-side leveling place the bottom side of
the level fl ush to the side panel.
2 Use adjustable pliers to adjust the leveling legs so
the washer is level front-to-rear and side-to-side,
and stable corner-to-corner.
3 Press down on alternate corners and sides and feel
for the slightest movement. Adjust the appropriate
leg(s) so the washer sits solidly on the fl oor on
ALL four legs. Keep the leveling leg extension at a
minimum for best performance of the washer.
