COMPLETE INSTALLATION
1. Check the electrical requirements. Be sure
that you have the correct electrical supply
and the recommended grounding method.
See “Electrical Requirements,” page 2-4.
2. Check that all parts are now installed. If
there is an extra part, go back through the
steps to see which step was skipped.
3. Check that you have all of your tools.
4. Remove any protective film or tape remain-
ing on the washer.
5. Dispose of, or recycle all packaging materi-
als.
6. Check that the water faucets are on.
7. Check for leaks around faucets and inlet
hoses.
LEVEL THE WASHER
One foot has been installed at a different
height on your new washer. The other three
feet were preset at the factory. Properly level-
ing your washer will minimize excessive noise
and vibration.
1. Using a 9/16
˝
(14 mm) open-end wrench,
verify that the nuts on the three preset feet
are tightened against the cabinet.
2. Slide the washer to its final location.
3. Push on the upper front panel to be sure
that the washer is on the rear feet. Lower
the right front foot until it contacts the floor.
By hand, firmly rotate the foot up to an ad-
ditional 1-1/2 turns.
6. After the washer is level, use a 9/16
˝
(14 mm) open-end wrench to turn the
nuts on the feet tightly against the washer
cabinet.
4. Check the levelness of the washer by plac-
ing a level on the top edge of the washer,
first side to side, then front to back.
5. Rock washer gently front to back, side to
side and diagonally to make sure that all
four feet are in firm contact with the floor.
IMPORTANT: All four feet must be tight-
ened. If the nuts are not tight against the
washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate.
7. If the washer is not level, move the washer
out slightly and first prop the front with a
wood block and adjust the feet as neces-
sary. Then prop the back and adjust feet
as necessary. Repeat this step until the
washer is level.
