- Inspect the washing machine for any signs of damage during transit. If damaged, do not proceed with installation and contact customer support.
2.2 Location Requirements
- Place the washing machine on a firm, level surface to minimize vibration and noise during operation.
- Ensure adequate space around the machine for ventilation and maintenance.

The Midea washing machine is equipped with adjustable leveling legs.
- Tilt the machine slightly and adjust the front leveling legs by turning them clockwise or counter-clockwise until the machine is stable.

- Tighten the lock nuts on the leveling legs to secure them in place.
2.4 Connecting Water and Drain Hoses
- Connect the water inlet hoses to the corresponding hot and cold water faucets (if applicable) and to the inlet valves on the back of the washing machine. Ensure connections are tight to prevent leaks.
- Position the drain hose securely into a standpipe or laundry tub, ensuring it is not kinked or blocked.
