How to Level a Bosch Dishwasher

Front to Rear

• 1

  Open the dishwasher door. Pull out the bottom rack and remove it from the machine temporarily. Place a small level on the bottom of the dishwasher longitudinally. Close the door.

• 2

  Remove the two retaining screws from the lower front cover of the dishwasher with a Phillips screwdriver. Pull the cover straight out and place it aside.

• 3

  Locate the screw on the bottom of the dishwasher near the center that controls the rear leveler of the machine. Turn the screw clockwise with a flat-blade screwdriver to raise the rear of the dishwasher. Turn the screw counterclockwise to lower the rear of the machine.

• 4

  Open the door and check the level. Ensure the bubble is between the two marks. Turn the adjustment screw as needed to fine-tune the level front to rear.

Side to Side

• 5

  Place the level on the bottom of the dishwasher crossways. Close the door.

• 6

  Locate the two front levelers on each side of the dishwasher near the floor.

• 7

  Turn the leveler on the low side of the dishwasher to the right with a flat-blade screwdriver to raise that side of the machine. Turn the leveler on the high side of the dishwasher to the left to lower that side.

• 8

  Open the door and check the level. Ensure the bubble is between the two marks. Turn levelers as needed to fine-tune the level side to side.

• 9

  Remove the level from inside the dishwasher, replace the bottom rack and close the door. Replace the lower front cover and tighten the retaining screws with a Phillips screwdriver.
