Possible Causes

Unit not leveled, Loose mounting brackets, Uneven floor, Heavy items loaded on one side only

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before adjusting installation.

  • Level the unit: Use a spirit level on the top of the dishwasher. Adjust the front and rear leveling feet until the unit is level side-to-side and front-to-back.
  • Secure mounting: Ensure the dishwasher is firmly attached to the cabinet using the provided mounting brackets at the sides or top.
  • Check loading: Distribute dishes evenly across racks and avoid placing all heavy items on one side.

Proper leveling and securing usually resolves vibration issues. If vibration persists, inspect the base frame and feet for damage.
