INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Step 4: Level your washer

Determine if your washer is level by checking the position of the tub or by using a 
level.

1

Slide your washer into position.

2

Open your washer’s lid, then pour water into the tub to the leveling circle. If 
your washer is level, the water touches the leveling circle all the way around. If 
your washer isn’t level, the water only touches part of the leveling circle.

CAUTION: 

Don’t use your washing machine without leveling it. If your washer isn’t level, it may:
• Vibrate excessively which can cause your washer to malfunction
• Make excessive noise
• Indicate error codes E3 or E4 when your washer is running
Extend the leveling feet only as much as is necessary. If the feet are extended too 
much, your washer may vibrate.

Leveling circle

Washer is level - the 
water touches the 
leveling circle all the 
way around.

Washer not level - the 
water does not touch 
the leveling circle all 
the way around.
