IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
|
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow |
|
WARNING |
||
basic precautions, including the following: |
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
DO NOT 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.
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 to the drying compartment.
DO NOT reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
DO NOT install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
DO NOT tamper with controls, repair or replace any part of this appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user maintenance instructions or in published user repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
DO NOT use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
DO NOT use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
Clean lint screen before or after each load. DO NOT operate the dryer without the lint filter in place.
Do not 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. Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
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.
Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.
Unplug the appliance or turn off the circuit breaker before servicing. Pressing the Power or Start/Pause button DOES NOT disconnect power.
DO NOT operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
DO NOT spray any type of aerosol into, on or near dryer at any time. Do not use any type of spray cleaner when cleaning dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

Sorting and Loading Hints
As a general rule, if clothes are sorted
properly for the washer, they are sorted properly for the dryer. Try also to sort items according to size. For example, do not dry a sheet with socks or other small items.
Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm. They may cause fabric softener
stains. Bounce® Fabric Conditioner Dryer Sheets have been approved for use in all GE Appliances dryers when used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not overload. This wastes energy and causes wrinkling.
Do not dry the following items: fiberglass items, woolens, rubber-coated items, plastics, items with plastic trim and foam-filled items.
9
Care and Cleaning of the Dryer.
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.
Pull out the lint filter.
Moisten your fingers and remove the captured lint.
Once clean, slide the filter back into position. Have a qualified technician vacuum the lint from the dryer once
a year.
NEVER OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT ITS FILTER IN PLACE.
Stainless Steel: To clean stainless steel surfaces use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel surfaces. Remove the cleaner residue and then dry with a clean cloth.
The stainless steel used to make the dryer drum provides the highest reliability available in a GE Appliances dryer. If the dryer drum should be scratched or dented during normal use, the drum will not rust or corrode. These surface blemishes will not affect the function or durability of the drum.
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:
1Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the plug from the wall socket.
2Disconnect the duct from the dryer.
3Vacuum 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.
10
Venting the dryer. |
GEAppliances.com |
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 below specifications. Carefully follow the details on Exhausting in the Installation Instructions.
WARNING 
- Fire Hazard
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.

Connecting Inlet Hoses.
To produce steam, the dryer must connect to the cold water supply. Since the washer must also connect to the cold water, a “Y” connector is inserted to allow both inlet hoses to make that connection at the same time.
NOTE: Use the new inlet hoses provided; never use old hoses.
Connect to Cold Water Supply (on some models)
1. |
Turn the cold water faucet off. Remove the washer inlet hose from the washer fill |
|||
“Y” Connector |
valve connector (cold). |
|||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. |
Ensure the rubber flat washer is in place and attach one female coupling of |
|
|
|
||
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|
the short hose onto the washer fill valve connector. Tighten by hand until firmly |
|
|
|
|
seated. |
3. |
Attach one male end of the “Y” connector to the other female coupling of the |
|||
|
|
|
|
short hose. Ensure the rubber flat washer is in place. Tighten by hand until firmly |
|
|
|
|
seated. |
4. |
Insert the filter screen in the coupling of the washer’s inlet hose. If a rubber flat |
|||
|
|
|
|
washer is already in place remove it before installing the filter screen. Attach |
|
|
|
|
this coupling to one male end of the ‘’Y’’ connector. Tighten by hand until firmly |
|
|
|
|
seated. |
5. |
Ensure the rubber flat washer is in place and attach the dryer’s long inlet hose to |
|||
|
|
|
|
one male end of the ‘’Y’’ connector. Tighten by hand until firmly seated. |
6. |
Ensure the rubber flat washer is in place and attach the other end of the dryer’s |
|||
|
|
|
|
long inlet hose to the fill valve connector at the bottom of the dryer back panel. |
|
|
|
|
Tighten by hand until firmly seated. |
7. |
Using pliers, tighten all the couplings with an additional two–thirds turn. |
|||
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the couplings may result. |
8. |
Turn the water faucet on. |
|||
9. |
Check for leaks around the ‘’Y’’ connector, faucet and hose couplings. |
