LEVELING THE DRYER
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.
Position the dryer in the final location. Place
a level across the top of the dryer. 1

Leveling Feet
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 dryer is level from
side to side and front to back.
Make sure that all 4 leveling feet are in firm
contact with the floor.
REVERSING THE DOOR SWING
The swing of the dryer door can be reversed to fit your installation location.
Open the dryer door. Using a Phillips screw-
driver, remove the 2 screws that secure
the door hinge to the dryer door opening.
Remove the 4 screws from the latch side of the
dryer door opening, and remove the door latch. 1 Turn the door around so the hinge is
reversed, and reattach the door using the
2 screws previously removed. Reinstall the
door latch and the 4 screws.
Test the door swing to make sure the door
moves freely and latches securely.

• All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the
fl oor. 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.
