Level the Washer
Properly leveling your washer avoids excessive noise and vibration.
Install the Front Leveling Feet
1. Prop up the front of the washer about 10.2 cm (4") with a wood block or similar object. The block needs to support the weight of the washer.
Steps in Final Location
1. Slide the washer to its final location. 2. Tilt the washer forward until the rear of the washer is at least 10.2 cm (4") off the floor. You may hear the self-adjusting rear feet click into place. Lower the washer to the floor.

Turn the feet clockwise to raise the washer or counterclockwise to lower the washer. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until washer is level.
