IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
SAFETY INFORMATION
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of death, fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury to persons when using
your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Ŷ
DO NOT wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
Ŷ
DO NOT place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may
contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to
contaminated loads, the final part of the tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid
stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread
out so that the heat is dissipated.
Ŷ
DO NOT add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water.
These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
Ŷ
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for
2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a
period, before using a washing machine, turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, DO NOT smoke
or use an open flame during this time.
Ŷ
DO NOT allow children to play on or in this appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when this
appliance is used near children. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door
and lid to the drying and washing compartments. Failure to follow these instructions may result in death or
injury to persons.
Ŷ
DO NOT reach into the appliance if the drum, tub or agitator is moving to prevent accidental entanglement.
Ŷ
DO NOT dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
Ŷ
Clean lint screen before or after each load.
Ŷ
DO NOT operate the dryer without the lint filter in place.
Ŷ
Follow all fabric care instructions and warnings to prevent melting of garments or damage to the appliance.
Ŷ
DO NOT use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the
fabric softener or product.
Ŷ
D O N O T store combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable liquids near the dryer. Keep area around
the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.
Ŷ
The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
Ŷ
DO NOT install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

in the user maintenance instructions or in published user repair instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
Ŷ
DO NOT operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or
broken parts including a damaged cord or plug.
Ŷ
Unplug the appliance or turn off the circuit breaker before servicing. Pressing the Power or Start/Pause
button DOES NOT disconnect power.
Ŷ
DO NOT spray any type of aerosol into, on or near appliance, at any time. DO NOT use any type of spray
cleaner when cleaning dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.
Ŷ
DO NOT store items that may burn or melt (such as clothing, paper material, plastics or plastic containers,
etc.) on top of the appliance nor hang them from the door.
Ŷ

Loosely load clothes no higher than the top row of holes in the washer basket.
Precise Fill - This selection automatically provides the correct amount of water suited to the
size and type of load placed in the unit.
If you prefer to manually select the water level, select Small through Super. While Precise
Fill is best for most loads and general washing, you may want to manually select the load size for specialty items
such as bulky, lightweight comforters or pillows, where you want to ensure a larger water level is applied. Manual
load size selections should be made for wet items placed in the washer, such as soaked towels or garments.

Consumer Help Indicator
Your washer is equipped with Consumer Help Indicator (CHI). CHI is our way to communicate a simple remedy for some
situations that you can perform without the need to call for service. The chart below describes the helpful lights you may
notice flashing on the display.
Spin and Rinse
lights blinking
If an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin and Rinse lights will blink during
the remaining portion of the cycle and will stay illuminated for a short time after cycle completion. When
this occurs, the washer is taking actions to correct the out-of-balance condition and complete the cycle
normally. In some cases, the washer may not be able to balance the load and spin up to full speed.
If you notice the load is more wet than normal at the end of the cycle, redistribute the load evenly in
the wash basket and run a Drain & Spin cycle.
Wash and Rinse
lights blinking
(Water not
entering washer)
Check your house water supply. Did you forget to turn on one or both supply valves after installation or
coming back from vacation? As soon as the lights start to flash, the washer will initiate a 4 minute lock-
out period. The washer controls won’t respond/change during this time. After the 4 minutes, you can
begin your cycle again. If you try to bypass the lock-out period by unplugging the washer, the 4 minute
timer will start over again.
Lid Locked light Lid Locked light will flash if 3 cycles have been started without opening the lid. The washer will not
start another cycle until the lid is opened. Try opening, then closing the lid and starting a new cycle. If
the problem persists, call GE Appliances at 800.GE.CARES (800.432.2737) for service.

USING THE WASHER
Fabric Softener Dispenser (on models with an agitator)
The fabric softener dispenser automatically releases
liquid fabric softener at the proper time during the cycle.
Do not stop the washer during the first spin. This will
cause the dispenser to empty too soon.
To use, follow these steps:
1
Make sure dispenser is securely attached to agitator.
2
Use only diluted liquid fabric softener. Pour into
dispenser, using amount recommended on package.
Never pour fabric softener directly on clothes. It may
stain them.
NOTE: Do not pour bleach into FABRIC SOFTENER
dispenser.
3
Add water to dispenser until it reaches the maximum
fill line.
4
Select Deep Rinse button on control panel for proper
dispersion of the fabric softener.
Do not pour anything into the agitator
if the dispenser is removed.
Liquid Bleach Funnel
The water fill dilutes liquid chlorine bleach as the washer
fills for the washer cycle.
1
Check clothing care labels for special instructions.
2
Measure liquid bleach carefully, following instructions
on the bottle.
Ŷ
Never pour undiluted liquid chlorine bleach directly
onto clothes or into the wash basket.
Ŷ
Do not pour powdered bleach into bleach funnel.
3
Before starting the washer, pour measured amount of
bleach directly into bleach funnel. Avoid splashing or
over-filling dispenser. If you prefer to use powdered
bleach, add it into the wash basket with your detergent.
Ŷ
Do not mix chlorine bleach with an oxi pre-treatment,
ammonia or acids such as vinegar and/or rust
remover. Mixing can produce a toxic gas which may
cause death.
NOTE: Do not pour bleach into FABRIC SOFTENER
dispenser.
Fabric Softener (on models with an infusor)
1
Select Deep Rinse button on control panel.
2
Add diluted liquid fabric softener during the rinse
cycle or use a fabric softener ball.
Deep Rinse
Select when using Fabric Softener
49-90581-5 11
Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.
DO NOT wash fabrics soiled with flammable liquids or cleaning solvents.
No washer can completely remove oil.
DO NOT wash or dry anything that has been soaked in or spotted with any type of oil (including cooking oils).
DO NOT reach into the washer until all moving parts have stopped.
Doing so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.
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). Wash lint producers such as cotton
towels and socks separate from lint collectors including synthetic garments and dress pants.
Loading the Washer (on models with an agitator)
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. To add items after washer has
started, press Start/Pause. Lift the lid and submerge additional items next to the agitator. Close the lid and press
Start to resume.
WARNING
- Fire Hazard
USING THE WASHER
Getting started - Washer
Proper Use of Detergent
Using too little or too much detergent is a common cause
of laundry problems.
Use less detergent if you have soft water, a smaller load or
a lightly soiled load.
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.
Place detergent packets in the bottom of the wash basket
before adding clothes.
We recommend the use of High Efficiency detergents such
as in your energy efficient washer. HE detergents are
formulated to work with low water wash and rinse systems.
HE detergents reduce the oversudsing problems commonly
associated with regular detergents.
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.
Loading the Washer (on models with an infusor)
Load dry items loosely in the washer basket. For best results, load items evenly and
loosely around the outside of the basket, filling in towards the center on larger loads.
To add items after washer has started, press Start/Pause. Lift the lid and submerge
additional items around the outside of the basket. Close the lid and press Start to resume.
Ŷ
Do not place large items such as
sheets, blankets and towels across
the Infusor. Load them around the
outside of the basket.
Ŷ
Do not wash fabrics containing
flammable materials (waxes,
cleaning fluids, etc.).
Ŷ
Wash action will not start with the
lid up.
Ŷ
Do not wrap long items like sheets
or pants around the agitator.

models are tested on Cottons cycle with default settings to determine energy use rating of this
dryer. The E-Dry option will default only for Cottons at Medium Dry/Normal and More Dry settings. Temperature
settings on Regular are specifically designed for this cycle to reduce energy consumption. For optimal energy
savings, turn E-Dry on. For optimal drying times, turn E-Dry off. Energy savings will vary across loads.
Temperature is automatically set according to fabric type and is not adjustable:
Regular heat = Cottons; Medium heat = Casuals; Low heat = Delicates.
Use Time Dry with Temperature set to Medium to dry bulky items such as bedspreads and comforters.

USING THE DRYER
Venting the Dryer
For the best drying performance, the dryer needs to be properly vented. The dryer will use more energy and run longer if it is
not vented to the specifications below. Carefully follow the details on Exhausting in the Installation Instructions.
This dryer MUST be exhausted to the outdoors.
Use only 4” rigid metal ducting for the home exhaust duct.
Use only 4” rigid metal or UL-listed dryer transition duct to connect the dryer to the home exhaust.
DO NOT use a plastic vent.
DO NOT exhaust into a chimney, kitchen exhaust, gas vent, wall, ceiling, attic, crawl space, or
concealed space of a building.
DO NOT install a screen in or over the exhaust duct.
DO NOT install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.
DO NOT use duct longer than specified in the exhaust length table.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.
The Exterior: Wipe or dust any spills or washing
compounds with a damp cloth. Dryer control panel and
finishes may be damaged by some laundry pretreatment
soil and stain remover products. Apply these products
away from the dryer. The fabric may then be washed and
dried normally. Damage to your dryer caused by these
products is not covered by your warranty.
The Lint Filter: Clean the lint filter before each use.
Slide out the grid that covers the filter. Run your fingers
across the filter. A waxy buildup may form on the lint filter
from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To remove
this buildup, wash the lint screen in warm, soapy water. Dry
thoroughly and replace. Do not operate the dryer without
the lint filter and grid in place. Have a qualified technician
vacuum the lint from the dryer once a year.
Dryer Interior and Duct: The interior of the
appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned once a year
by qualified service personnel.
The Exhaust Duct: Inspect and clean the exhaust
ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging. A partially
clogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.
Follow these steps:
1. Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the plug from
the wall socket.
2. Disconnect the duct from the dryer.
3. Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment and
reconnect the duct.
The Exhaust Hood: Check with a mirror that the
inside flaps of the hood move freely when operating. Make
sure that there is no wildlife (birds, insects, etc.) nesting
inside the duct or hood.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS - WASHER
Troubleshooting Tips - Washer
Performance Possible Causes What to do
Pilling
Result of normal wear
on poly-cotton blends
and fuzzy fabrics
While this is not caused by the washer, you can slow the pilling
process by washing garments inside out.
Snags, holes, tears,
rips or excessive
wear
Pins, snaps, hooks,
sharp buttons, belt
buckles, zippers and
sharp objects left in
pockets

laundry.
Quick short agitation
sounds
Clothing redistribution At different periods of the agitation phase, the motor makes
short agitation strokes to redistribute the load.
“Click” when water
stops filling
Relay switch The relay makes a click sound when activated. The water level
activates the relay and stops filling.
“Clicking” behind
control panel during fill
Automatic Temperature
Control Valve
This valve mixes in cold and hot water. The “clicking” is the
valve turning on and off.
