Storing |

(such as when moving |
out). |
qStore the transport bolts with the washer and bushing attached.
Leveling |
Procedure |
||
1. The appliance should |
now be in its |
||
final position, ready for leveling |
|||
(moving |
the |
appliance |
after |
leveling |
can |
make it |
unlevel again.) |
Each foot of the appliance or ped^ estal must be placed firmly on the floor to prevent the appliance from wobbling.
Start with all four feet screwed in as far as possible, then back individual feet out as necessary to level the appliance.Move the feet
as little as possible to help reduce vibration.
2.Use a bubble level (24" or less in
length) |
to |
check |
the |
leveling status |
|||||
of |
the |
appliance |
(be |
sure the |
level |
||||
fits between the edges of the |
|
||||||||
appliance, and is not elevated |
at |
||||||||
one |
end on |
a |
ridge |
on |
the surface |
||||
of |
the |
appliance.) |
|
|
|
||||
q Lay the bubble level across |
the |
||||||||
|
unit worktop to check the level |
||||||||
|
from |
side |
to |
side |
and |
from |
front |
||
|
to back. |
|
|
|
|
|
|||
q A |
center-located bubble |
|
|||||||
|
indicates the unit is leveled. |
|
|||||||
|
Otherwise, |
repeat |
the |
leveling |
|||||
|
procedure until the unit is |
|
|||||||
|
leveled. |
|
Tip: |
if the bubble |
is |
||||
|
closer to one end, it |
indicates |
|||||||
|
the high side of the unit. To |
||||||||
|
level the unit, either lower the |
||||||||
|
higher side or raise the lower |
||||||||
|
side. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
q After |
leveling |
the |
unit |
from |
side |
||||
|
to side, |
then |
turn |
the |
level |
so |
|||
|
that it lays on the worktop from |
||||||||
|
front |
to |
back |
to check if it is |
|||||
|
level |
in |
that |
direction. |
|
|

on |
|
each corner of the appliance to make sure the unit does not wobble. If it does wobble, lower the foot on that corner until the foot touches the floor firmly.
3.For Washers:Fine tune the
leveling by placing a small load of laundry in the machine, starting it in spin cycle and then leveling the appliance again.
i If the test spin cycle is manually
stopped |
before |
its |
completion, |
|
then |
the |
door |
may |
remain locked |
for |
10 seconds. |
