b Leveling Feet
• All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the
floor. Gently push on the top corners of the
appliance to make sure that the appliance does
not rock from corner to corner.
• Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary
to level the appliance. Extending the leveling feet
more than necessary may cause the appliance to
vibrate.

drying performance, it must be level. To
minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted
movement, the floor must be a perfectly level,
solid surface.
Adjusting the Leveling Feet

and front to back. Make sure that all four leveling
feet are in firm contact with the floor.

pedestal, you must use the leveling feet on the
pedestal to level the appliance. The appliance
leveling feet should be fully retracted.
