Loading and Using the Washer
www.GEAppliances.com
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).
Loading the
Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top
row of holes in the washer basket. Overloading
may reduce washer efficiency and possibly
increase wrinkling.
Bulky items should be placed as far down in the
wash basket as possible for optimal results.
Always place buoyant items at the bottom of the
wash basket.
The washer will automatically detect the load
size. Because of the high-efficiency wash system,
the water level may not completely cover the
load. To add items after washer has started, lift
the lid, add items, close the lid and press
START.
• Do not wash fabrics containing flammable
materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.)
• The washer will not fill or operate with the
lid open.
Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.
