IMPORTANT
– Dishwasher must be level for proper dish
rack operation, wash performance and door operation. The
dishwasher must be leveled left to right and front to back.
This ensures the dish racks will not roll in or out on their own,
circulation water will flow to the pump inlet, and the door will
close without hitting the side of the tub.

LEVEL DISHWASHER
STEP 14
(CONT.)
• Remove the lower dish
rack and place a level on
the door and lower rack
track as shown in figure.
If your model has a rear leveling system, the rear height
is adjusted from the front of the dishwasher along with the
2 front legs on the bottom of the dishwasher. Begin the
leveling process with the front legs by individually turning the
front 2 legs. Adjust the front legs first. When the front legs
are adjusted to a height resulting in an appropriate gap to
the upper cabinet, proceed to adjust the rear leveling system
by adjusting the leveling bolt as illustrated in the figure.
Turn the bolt to adjust the rear leveling system. Slowly rotate
the bolt clockwise to raise the back of the dishwasher, and
counterclockwise to lower it. Continue to adjust the feet until
the dishwasher is level as illustrated in the figure. Ensure all 3
legs are firmly in contact with the floor.

If your model has 4 leveling feet, adjust the
level of the dishwasher by individually turning
the 4 legs on the bottom of the dishwasher
as shown in figure.
• The dishwasher is properly leveled when the level indicator is
centered left to right and front to back. Also, the dishwasher
door should close without hitting the side of the tub.
• Replace the lower rack.
Tip: Prevent unnecessary service charges. Verify
dishwasher is leveled.
Pull the dish racks half way out. They should stay put. Open
and close the door. The door should fit in the tub opening
without hitting the side of the tub. If the racks roll on their
own, or the door hits the side of tub, re-level the dishwasher.
