Level the Dishwasher
CAUTION
• A level unit is very important to proper operation.
Be sure to level the unit front to back and side
to side.
• Use caution when sliding the dishwasher on the
floor. Even the plastic feet can cause damage to
certain types of flooring.
The dishwasher comes with white plastic feet for the
legs to help avoid damage to the kitchen floor when
you slide it into place. Snap them onto the bottom of
all three legs before leveling the appliance.
Do not attach the plastic feet if the installation space
is the minimum required height.
To level the dishwasher:
1. Position the dishwasher in front of the cabinet
opening. Loosen the retaining nuts on the
dishwasher’s three feet using a crescent wrench.
Turn the nuts until they are as close to the floor
as possible.
2. Measure the height of the front and back of the
cutout with a tape measure.
3. Adjust the feet, until the front of the dishwasher
measures 1/8” (3.0 mm) shorter than the cutout
height.
Installation Instructions
4. Open the door and pull the bottom rack out of the
dishwasher. Check to make sure the dishwasher
floor is level left to right using a level. Adjust the
front legs as necessary.
5. Adjust the rear leg until the floor of the
dishwasher is level front to back.
6. Tighten the rear retaining nut, but leave the front
retaining nuts loose to allow for final leveling after
the unit is pushed into place.
