Sorting Wash Loads
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level,
fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates)
and whether the fabric produces lint (terry cloth,
chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy).
Proper Use of Detergent
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely in the washer basket. When
loading wet items, make sure you set the load/water
level high enough to allow the items to move freely.
Water level should just cover the items. To add items
after washer has started, lift the lid and submerge
additional items next to the agitator.
Do not wrap long items like sheets or pants
around the agitator.
Do not wash fabrics containing flammable
materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).
Washer will not agitate or spin with the lid up,
however the timer will continue to run.
Wash Basket: Leave the lid open after washing to
allow moisture to evaporate. If you want to clean
the basket, use a clean soft cloth dampened with
liquid detergent; then rinse. (Do not use harsh or
gritty cleaners.)
Fill Hoses: GE recommends changing the hoses
every 5 years.
Exterior: Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe
with damp cloth. Try not to hit surface with
sharp objects.
Moving and Storage: Ask the service technician to
remove water from drain pump and hoses. See the
Installation Instructions packed with product for
information on how to reinstall the shipping rod
to keep the tub stationary when moving the washer.
For more information, visit GEAppliances.com or
call 800.GE.CARES (800.432.2737). Do not store the
washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
Long Vacations: Be sure water supply is shut off at
faucets. Drain all water from hoses if weather will
be below freezing.
Care and cleaning of the washer.
Add detergent before adding items so that the
detergent can work effectively. Using too little or
too much detergent is a common cause of laundry
problems.
For spots, apply pre-treatment to items as
recommended on the product label. Application
should be made in the basket to prevent overspray
which may cause the coloring on the lid or graphics
to fade.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water,
a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.
When using high efficiency or concentrated
detergents, consult the product label to determine
amount required for optimum performance.
Excessive detergent will negatively impact wash
performance.
