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
Add detergent and start the washer before adding
clothes so that the detergent can work effectively.
Using too little or too much detergent is a common
cause of laundry problems.
You can use less detergent if you have soft water,
a smaller load or a lightly soiled load.
Loading the Washer
Load dry items loosely, no higher than the top row of
holes 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 clothes. 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.).
Agitation will not start with the lid up.
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

GEAppliances.ca or call 888.561.3344. 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.
