Sorting and LoadingHints

Asa 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 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.

Loading and using the dryer,

Always follow the fabric manufacturer's care label when laundering.

Careand Cleaningof the Dryer

TheExterior: 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. Thefabric may

then be washed and dried normally. Damage to your dryer caused by these products is not covered by

your warranty.

TheLint 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.

Thestainless steel used to make the dryer drum provides the highest reliability available in a GEdryer.

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:

r-1-1Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the

plug from the wall socket.

r21 Disconnect the duct from the dryer. J-3]Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment and

reconnect the duct.

TheExhaust Hood: Checkwith a mirror that the inside flaps of the hood move freely when operating. Make

sure that there isno wildlife (birds,insects,etc.) nesting insidethe duct or hood.

Venting the dryer. GEApplioncescom

For the best drying performance, the dryer needs to be properly vented. The dryer will use more

energy end run longer if it is not vented to the below specificotions. Curefully follow the detoils on Exhousting in the Instollotion Instructions.

[] Use only rigid metal 4" diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet and use only UL approved

transition ducting between the dryer and the home duct.

[] Do not use plastic or other combustible ductwork. [] Use the shortest length possible.

[] Do not crush, kink or collapse the duct. [] Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.

[] Venting must conform to Iocol building codes.

Correct Venting

Incorrect Venting

Connecting Inlet Hoses.

"Y" Connector

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

valve connector (cold).

2. Ensurethe rubber flat washer is in place and screw the female coupling of the

short hose onto the washer fill valve connector. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.

3. Attach the female end of the "V" connector to the male coupling of the short

hose. Ensurethe rubber flat washer isin place. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.

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.

Ensurethe rubber flat washer is in place and attach the dryer's long inlet hose to the other mule end of the '"7"connector. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.

Ensurethe 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 buck panel. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.

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. Checkfor leaks around the '"7"connector, faucet and hose couplings.
