Leveling the Dryer
WARNING
w
• To reduce the risk of injury to persons, adhere to all
industry recommended safety procedures including
the use of long sleeved gloves and safety glasses.
Failure to follow this warning can cause serious injury
or death.
• The appliances are heavy. Two or more people are
required when installing the dryer. Failure to follow
this warning can cause serious injury or death.
To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying
performance, it must be level. To minimize vibration,
noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be a
perfectly level, solid surface.
NOTE
Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to
level the dryer. Extending the leveling feet more than
necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.
1. Position the dryer in the final location. Place a level
across the top of the dryer.
• All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the floor.
Gently push on the top corners of the dryer to make
sure that the dryer does not rock from corner to corner.
If you are installing the dryer on the optional pedestal,
you must use the leveling feet on the pedestal to
level the dryer. The dryer leveling feet should be fully
retracted.

2. Use an adjustable wrench to turn the leveling feet.
Turn clockwise to raise the dryer or counterclockwise
to lower it. Raise or lower the leveling feet until the
dryer is level from side to side and front to back.
Make sure that all four leveling feet are in firm contact
with the floor.
