Proper leveling is important for performance. The dryer must be level to help provide optimal drying performance. A perfectly level, solid floor helps minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement.
Before you begin - Wear long-sleeved gloves and safety glasses. - The appliance is heavy. Two or more people are required for installation. - If the dryer is being installed on the optional pedestal, use the leveling feet on the pedestal to level the appliance. The dryer’s own leveling feet should be fully retracted.
