IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

■

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.

■

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.

■

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.

■

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.

■

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.

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

Wash and Rinse lights blinking (Water not entering washer)

Lid Locked light Lid Locked light will flash if 3 cycles have been started without opening the lid. The washer will not

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.

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 lockout 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.

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.

Getting started - Washer

Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.

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.

USING THE WASHER

WARNING

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). Follow all fabric care instructions and warnings to prevent melting of garments or damage to the appliance. DO NOT reach into the washer until all moving parts have stopped. Doing so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.

- Fire Hazard

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.

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.
