How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before tipping or moving the machine.
Steps:
- Check shipping bolts: Ensure all transit bolts at the rear have been removed according to the installation manual.
- Level the machine: Adjust the front and rear feet so the washer-dryer is stable and level in all directions.
