IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

• To reduce the risk of death, fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions before using the appliance.
• Follow all fabric care instructions and warnings to prevent melting of garments or damage to the appliance.
• 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 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 smokeor 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 washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door or lid. Failure to follow these instructions may result in death or injury to persons.
• DO NOT reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving to prevent accidental entanglement.
• For waterproof, water-resistant and bulky items, only use the Bulky (or Delicates) cycle. DO NOT use other cycles for these items. Using other cycles can cause excessive vibration and may result in injury or damage to the washer, walls, or floor. DO NOT mix waterproof and non-waterproof items.
• 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 operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts including a damaged cord or plug.
• Unplug the appliance or turn off the circuit breaker before servicing. Pressing the Power button DOES NOT disconnect power.
• See “ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS” located in the Installation Instructions for grounding instructions.

Proper Disposal of your Appliance
Dispose of or recycle your appliance in accordance with Federal and Local Regulations. Contact your local authorities for the environmentally safe disposal or recycling of your appliance.

PROPER INSTALLATION
This washer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.

• Ensure that the hot water hose is connected to the “H” valve and the cold water hose is connected to the “C” valve.
• Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to the weather, which could cause permanent damage and invalidate the warranty.
• Properly ground washer to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in the Installation Instructions.
• Ensure washer is properly leveled and washer legs are adjusted such that unit is stable.
• Optional drain hose extension recommended for discharging heights from 60” – 96”.
• GE Appliances strongly recommends the use of factory specified parts. A list of factory hoses available for purchase are listed. These hoses are manufactured and tested to meet GE Appliances specifications.
• GE Appliances strongly recommends the use of new water supply hoses. Hoses degrade over time and need to be replaced every 5 years to reduce the risk of hose failures and water damage.
• Consider recycling options for your appliance packaging material.

START-UP SEQUENCE
Any time the washer is being started or restarts after the washer lid has been opened and closed, the washer will turn on the cold water valve or drain pump for two short periods followed by a 10 second pause before continuing. If the lid is opened during this period, the washer will pause. You will have to push the Start button again to restart the cycle

AUTOMATIC DRAIN SEQUENCE

• Machine will automatically drain any time the lid is left open for more than 15 minutes and water is present.
• Machine will automatically drain if left in a paused state with the lid closed for more than 24 hours and water is present.
• Machine will automatically drain after dispensing water in Water Station mode after the cycle knob has been turned to another cycle

WHEN NOT IN USE
Turn off water faucets to minimize leakage if a break or rupture should occur. Check the condition of the fill hoses; GE Appliances recommends changing the hoses every 5 years.

Getting started

WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model

Step 1

• Add fabric softener to the fabric softener dispenser. IMPORTANT: For detergent use, see the specific dispenser section in this manual for your model.
• If using detergent packets, add to the Laundry Pack Dispenser cup (on some models) or add to the bottom of the wash basket before adding clothes. We recommend the use of High Efficiency laundry packs such as Tide PODS™ or Gain Flings™.

Step 2

• Loosely add items around agitator or Infusor. Overloading may negatively impact wash performance. See page 16 for suggested loading examples.
• If not using a dispenser, add the manufacturer’s recommended amount of detergent to the top of the load after adding clothes. We recommend the use of High Efficiency detergents such as Tide in your energy efficient washer.

Step 3

• Close lid.
  NOTE : Unit will not start with lid open except on Bulky cycle.

• Select wash cycle.

NOTE : Pressing Power does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

Start/Pause

• Press Start to begin the cycle. NOTE: Unless Bulky cycle is selected, the lid must be closed for the washer to start cycle. If the lid is open, “Lid” will scroll across the display. During the load sensing portion of the cycle, the lid will lock and “SEnSing” will scroll across the display. When load sensing is complete, the lid will unlock.
• Pressing Pause will unlock the lid (if locked at that time), pause the cycle and the Start indicator light will blink.
• To continue the cycle, press Start again. If water remains in the machine, select the Drain & Spin cycle to drain basket and spin water out of the washer basket. NOTE: Machine will automatically cancel and drain when water is present and the lid is left open for 15 minutes or the unit is left in a paused state for 24 hours with the lid closed. Select cycle and press Start to begin new cycle

Getting started

Display and Status Lights
Display : The display shows the approximate time remaining until the end of the cycle. NOTE: The cycle time is affected by how long it takes the washer to fill. This depends on the water pressure in your home. The size of the load being washed also significantly impacts cycle time, with larger loads taking longer.

In addition, this display will, “scroll” the washer status:

• bALAnCINg Start of rebalancing cycle to redistribute clothes. Stops after rebalancing is complete.
• dELAY When Delay Wash is initiated. Replaced with estimated time when cycle starts.
• End End of current cycle.
• FILL “FILL” will scroll across the display during fill. Afterwards the estimated end of cycle time is displayed.
• H2O SUPPLY Can not sense water level (water supply possibly turned off).
• LId Cycle stopped because lid is open. Close the lid and press the Start button if needed.
• SEnSIng Sensing out-of-balance condition, waterproof items, or load size and type before and during fill (normal).
• PAUSE Cycle paused because the lid was opened during start up sequence or the Start/Pause button was pressed.

Press Start button again to restart the cycle. Cycle status lights: Shows whether the washer is in the Pre-wash, Delay, Fill, Soak, Wash, Rinse or Spin portion of the cycle.
NOTE: Cycle status lights vary by model.
If an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin light 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.

Feature status lights indicate (see sections F and G for more details):

• Pause – Will display when washer is paused between cycles.
• Controls – The washer is locked – will blink once if you press any button or turn the cycle knob.
• Lid Lock – The lid is locked. See the Control Lock description.
• WiFi (on some models) – Will display when washer is connected via WiFi. Will blink when you are attempting to connect your device to your home WiFi.
• Spin Stop – Indicates wash basket is coasting to a stop following spin. Lid will not unlock until basket has fully come to a stop.

Consumer Help Indicator

The chart below describes the helpful messages you may notice scrolling on your display when you return to start another load. These messages will provide simple remedies you can quickly perform

• Spin light blinking If an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin light 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.
• “H2O SUPPLY” (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 message starts to scroll, 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.
• “CAnCELEd” “CAnCELEd” may scroll on the display if the machine was paused for longer than 24 hours or if the machine has stopped itself before the cycle completed due to certain errors. As soon as the message starts to scroll, the washer will initiate a 4 minute lock-out period. The washer controls won’t respond/change during this time. After the 4 minute period, 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. If the problem persists, call GE Appliances at 800. GE.CARES (800.432.2737) for service.

Pretreating or Soaking Using Water Station (on some models)

This feature is for pretreating of garments only and not intended to serve as an actual wash cycle. When selected, the washer will supply either fresh water or water mixed with detergent from your SmartDispense system for garment hand pre-washing or pre-treating use. The pretreating water will be dispensed from the area located in the back of the main opening of the washer. When selected, any water dispensed into the wash tub during the pretreat will be drained from the machine before any subsequently selected wash cycle can begin Alternatively, you can use this feature to soak your garments in the pretreated water for up to 24 hours with the lid closed and the cycle knob remaining on Water Station. In order to use this feature to soak, keep dial on Water Station and close the lid. You can soak for up to 24 hours before the water in the tub will be automatically drained. Rotating the dial, holding the Start button for 3 seconds or leaving the lid open for more than 15 minutes will all automatically drain the water from the tub.

Water Station only
Select this feature:

1. Rotate the cycle selection knob to Water Station.
2. Push the Select button until the LED below Water is illuminated.
3. Select the desired water temperature using the Temp button.
4. Press the Start button to initiate the feature.

If the lid is not already open, raise the lid of the washer to start the flow of fresh water from the dispensing area. Water will continue to be dispensed until the lid is closed or the water level in the tub reaches the maximum level. If the lid is closed before the maximum level in the tub is reached, additional water can be dispensed by opening the lid again. Once the lid is closed, water dispensed using the water on demand feature will remain in the tub until the cycle selection knob is rotated to an actual wash cycle, or the Start button is held in for 3 seconds, at which point the water in the tub will be drained out of the machine. If the lid is not closed, the water in the tub will automatically be drained after 15 minutes. With the lid closed, if the cycle selection knob is not rotated to an actual wash cycle, or the Start button is not held in for 3 seconds, the water in the tub will automatically be drained after 24 hours

Water Station with Detergent

1. Rotating the cycle selection knob to the Water Station.
2. Push the Select button until the LED below Detergent + Water is illuminated.
3. Select the desired water temperature using the Temp button.
4. Press the Start button to initiate the detergent feature. If the lid is not already open, raise the lid of the washer to start the flow of soapy water from the dispensing area. Soapy water will continue to be dispensed until the lid is closed or the water level in the tub reaches the maximum level.

If the lid is closed before the maximum level in the tub is reached, additional soapy water can be dispensed by simply opening the lid again. Once the lid is closed, soapy water dispensed will remain in the tub until the cycle selection knob is rotated to an actual wash cycle, or the Start button is held in for 3 seconds, at which point the soapy water in the tub will be drained out of the machine.
If the lid is not closed, the soapy water in the tub will automatically be drained after 15 minutes. With the lid closed, if the cycle selection knob is not rotated to an actual wash cycle, or the Start button is not held in for 3 seconds, the soapy water in the tub will automatically be drained after 24 hours.

Stain Removal Guide (on some models)

The Stain Removal Guide feature allows you to indicate what stains are on the garments in your load. An initial water fill is performed at a temperature tailored to the stain type selected and to an amount which enables a concentrated cleaning step. A stain scrubbing period, followed by a soak, is conducted to effectively treat the stain. Then additional water is added to the selected temperature and the wash phase is conducted for the cycle selected.
This feature can be applied to most wash cycles as described in the cycle guide.

To use Stain Removal Guide:

1. Select the desired wash cycle.
2. Press the Stain Removal Guide button.

Continue to press to select Tomato stain, Wine stain, Blood stain, Grass stain or Dirt stain. The indicator light will show the selected stain.

• To select a different stain, press the Stain Removal Guide button until desired stain to be removed is lit.

• To turn off Stain Removal Guide, press until no indicator lights are illuminated.
  NOTE : The Soil and Temperature levels will be changed to match the recommended default setting for each stain type.

• Turning off Stain Removal Guide will return the settings to default.

Stain Removal Guide

• Recommended temperatures are optimal for stain removal performance; adjust temperature selection to suit load being washed.
• Ensure stain is completely removed after wash cycle and before placing in dryer; very tough stains may require a second treatment.

Cycle Options

Deep Fill

• Select the Deep Fill feature for loads where extra water is desired. The Deep Fill feature is recommended for special case loads only, not for typical use.
• Press and release the Deep Fill button once before starting the cycle to add 3 addition gallons of water to the wash load.
• Holding the Deep Fill button for 3 seconds will provide the deepest fill level possible; this will increase cycle time due to the additional time it takes to fill the washer.
• To cancel the option if desired, press the Deep Fill button again.
  NOTE : The Deep Fill button can also be pressed after the washer has completed filling and is in the wash phase if additional water is desired. To stop the extra fill, press the Deep Fill button again and the water will stop.

Power Pre-wash (on some models)
Ideal for heavily soiled loads, this cycle option works with SmartDispense™ to add a brief wash, soak and drain cycle to loosen and remove heavy soil before starting the cycle selected.

Tangle Control™ (on some models)
Setting this option will adjust your wash cycle to aid in the prevention of tangling. Your cycle time may increase when this option is selected. NOTE: This option is not allowed for some cycles.

Warm Rinse (on some models)
Provides a warm rinse to your wash load. Note that rinsing operations may be different with this operation selected in order to effectively apply the warm rinse water to your load.

Auto Soak
This option begins with a brief agitation, soaks for a specified period of time, then moves through the rest of the cycle automatically. Repeated pressing of the Soak button will scroll through 15 minute, 30 minute, 1 hour and 2 hour selections and then return back to 0 soak minutes.

Loading

Always follow the fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering

Automatic Load Sensing
This determines the appropriate amount of water suited to the size and type of load placed in the washer. The washer will not start the wash cycle or fill with water if the lid is open. When the lid is closed the machine can begin filling with water to sense the load size.
NOTE : Automatic Load Sensing initiates a spin at the beginning of the cycle; this is normal operation.
NOTE : This is a high-efficiency washing machine. This system requires less water while providing effective cleaning action. You may notice that the water level is lower than on your previous washer. This is normal for a high- efficiency washer.

Pretreatment

Place laundry pretreatments, such as an Oxi product, directly on top of the load of clothes.
NOTE : Do not use liquid chlorine bleach and laundry pretreatments such as an Oxi product in the same wash load.

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 Laundry Pack Dispenser (on some models) or the bottom of the wash basket before adding clothes.
• GE Appliances recommends the use of High-Efficiency detergents such as Tide PODS™ and liquid detergents 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 the amount required for optimum performance. Excessive detergent will negatively impact wash performance.

Sorting Wash Loads
Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric type (sturdy cotton, 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

Fire Hazard

• DO NOT wash fabrics soiled with flammable liquids or cleaning solvents.
• No washer can completely remove oil.
• DO NOT dry anything that has been soaked in or spotted with any type of oil.
• DO NOT reach into the washer until all moving parts have stopped.
• Doing so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.

Loading the Washer

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 if the lid is locked; wait until the Lid Lock indicator on the display is no longer illuminated before attempting to open the lid. Lift the lid and submerge additional items around the outside of the basket. Close the lid and press Start to resume. Adjust load size selection and/or use Deep Fill option if necessary.
NOTE : Some cycles use a two stage wash fill. The first stage will have a lower water level than the second stage; this is normal operation.

• Do not place large items such as sheets, blankets and towels across the Infusor. Load them around the outside of the basket.
• Do not put lawn or sofa cushions into the washer as they are too big to move. Remove outer covers and ONLY wash them

Troubleshooting Tips

Before you call for service

Small amount of water remaining in dispenser (on some models) at end of cycle| Normal dispenser operation| It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in dispenser after the cycle.
Short spray or turn on of drain pump and delay after pushing the Start button| Lid was opened and closed between cycle selection and start| This is normal. See START-UP SEQUENCE in the Safety Instructions section.
Water level seems low| This is normal| Water may not cover the top level of the clothes. This is normal for this high efficiency washer.
Low water flow| Water valve screens are stopped up| Turn off the water source and remove the water connection hoses from the upper back of the washer and the water faucets. Clean both the hose screens (if so equipped) and the screens in the machine using a brush or a toothpick. Reconnect the hoses and turn the water back on.
