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.
n DO NOT allow children to play on or in this appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when this appliance is
used near children.
n Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.
n DO NOT reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

About the dryer features.
Sensor Dry
Sensor Dry
This feature is active in all cycles except
Timed Dry, Warm Up and Air Fluff.
The Sensor Dry provides greater drying
accuracy than standard machines, resulting
in shorter dry times and better clothes
care. As the clothes tumble, they touch a
moisture sensor. The sensor will stop the
heating cycle as soon as the clothes have
reached the selected dryness.
Drum Light
The drum light is an LED light. Replacement
must be done by a qualified technician.
Drying Rack(on some models)
This dryer will adjust the initial estimated
drying time of the sensor dry cycles as it
“learns” its installation and usage profile.
Please allow several weeks for the dryer to
customize itself to “you”.
A handy drying rack may be used for drying
delicate items such as washable sweaters.
Hook the rack over the lint filter so
the rack extends into the dryer drum.
NOTE:
n The drying rack must be used with the
Timed Cycle.
n Do not use this drying rack when there
are other clothes in the dryer.
Alloy Steel Drum(on some models)
The alloy steel used to make the dryer drum
provides the highest reliability available in a
GE Appliances dryer.
If your model did not come with a drying rack,
order one on-line at GEApplianceparts.com
today, 24 hours a day or by phone at
800.626.2002 during normal business hours.

rust or corrode. These surface blemishes will
not affect the function or durability of the
drum.

Sorting and Loading Hints
WARNING
• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from dryer.
• DO NOT dry anything that has ever had anything
flammable on it (even after washing).
• No washer can completely remove oil.
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.
- Fire Hazard
Do not dry
(used with
do not wash)
In the shade
• DO NOT dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils).
• Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried
on a clothesline.
• Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
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 this dryer when used in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not overload. This wastes energy and causes wrinkling.

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.
Remove by pulling straight up. 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 in place.
Vacuum the lint from the dryer lint filter area if you notice
a change in dryer performance.
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.
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 from the outside that the flaps of
the hood move freely when operating. Make sure that there
is not wildlife (birds, insects, etc.) nesting inside the duct or
hood.
