Whirlpool WFW9151YW Instrução De Instalação

Leveling your washer properly reduces excess noise and  

vibration.

NOTE: Installing washer on soft floor surfaces, such as  

carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not recommended.

Remove cardboard from beneath washer.  

Slide washer to its final location. Place a level on top edges  

of washer, checking each side and front. If not level, tip 

washer and adjust feet up or down as shown in steps 17  

and 18, repeating as necessary. If washer is against a wall, 

move out slightly before tipping back.

Grip washer from top and rock back and forth, making sure all 

four feet are firmly on floor. Repeat, rocking washer from side 

to side. If washer rocks, go to step 18 and adjust leveling feet. 

If all four feet are in firm contact with floor, go to Step 19.

Attach hot water hose to hot water inlet valve marked with a

to tighten couplings an additional two-thirds turn. Repeat with

IMPORTANT: To reduce risk of hose failure, replace the hoses 

every 5 years. Record hose installation or replacement dates 

for future reference.

Damage to the valves can result.

  Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, 

wear, or leaks are found.

Slowly turn on water faucets to check for leaks. A small 

amount of water may enter washer. It will drain later.
