Leveling Dishwasher

Check that the dishwasher is level and adjust the

leakage, problems closing the door, or noise.

recommended (see Preparing Cabinet
Opening), the dishwasher must be carefully
leveled and aligned so that the dishwasher is

do so can result in leaks from the front of the
dishwasher,
door, or failure to operate.
