Steam and SensorDry Plus™ Features
Profile 650 model dryers now incorporate two new
steam features. These units do not utilize a separate
steam generator. These dryers use a water valve and
a steam nozzle that functions as a “misting” orifice. It
works in conjunction with the
heat generated by the dryer to
de-wrinkle clothing.
Located in the Timed Dry Cycles,
the steam cycles are:
• Steam Refresh - Freshens up
to five slightly wrinkled dry
garments, reducing wrinkles
and odors to extend for
another wear.
• Steam Dewrinkle - Helps
remove stubborn wrinkles
from larger loads, quickly
and conveniently, even from
clothes left in the dryer from
the day before.
A "Y" connector installed on the
washer's cold water inlet hose
supplies water to the dryer. The
water valve inlet is located at the bottom left on the
rear panel of the dryer. A hose carries the water to the
misting orifice.
Other Features Include:
• Rotary electronic controls with Adaptive Logic -
Simplify cycle selection with easy-to-use rotary
dial controls. Adaptive Logic allows the dryer
to adapt to household conditions for efficient
performance.
• 5 heat selections - Offer enhanced drying
performance and fabric care.
• Cycle countdown display with LED indicators -
Know exactly how much time is left for each cycle
with bright display and lights.
Introduction
• Antibacterial cycle - Reduces certain types of
bacteria by 99.9%
• Delicate cycle with low-heat setting - Low-
heat setting and gentle wash cycle help
protect delicate garments.
• Deluxe dryer rack - Allows
tumble-free drying of items
like washable sweaters,
sneakers, and stuffed
animals.
• Damp Dry cycle - Allows
you to remove select items
for hang drying or damp
ironing.
• Large 7.0-cubic foot
stainless steel dryer drum
• Drum Lamp
• Dual Thermistors -
Thermistors are more
sensitive to temperature
changes and can relay the
information faster than
thermostats. The dryer
utilizes dual thermistors to monitor incoming
air temperature as well as air temperature
leaving the drum. The sensors work together
with the heater and the blower to provide
consistent, even heat.
• SensorDry Plus™ - A moisture sensor allows
the control to monitor the fabric for moisture
content and end the cycle at the desired
moisture level.
• Built-in service test mode. Specific dryer
components can be operated. Error codes are
recorded and accessible on the control panel
display.
• Flush Door Handle
• Reversible Door

Water Line Connection
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 the other
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.
WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within
42 in. (107 cm) of your washer’s water inlet. The
faucets MUST be 3/4 in. (1.9 cm) garden hose-type
faucets so inlet hoses can be connected. Water
pressure MUST be between 10 and 120 pounds per
square inch. Your water department can advise you
of your water pressure.
Note: A water softener is recommended to reduce
buildup of scale inside the steam nozzle if the home
water supply is very hard.
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.
1. Turn the cold water faucet off. Remove the
washer inlet hose from the washer fill valve
connector (cold).
2. Ensure the 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 ‘’Y’’ connector to
the male coupling of the short hose. Ensure the
rubber flat washer is in place. Tighten by hand
until firmly seated.
8. Turn the water faucet on.
9. Check for leaks around the ‘’Y’’ connector, faucet
and hose couplings.
7. Using pliers, tighten all the couplings with an
additional two–thirds turn.
Note: Do not overtighten. Damage to the couplings
may result.

About the control settings.
End of Cycle Signal
This signal will sound just before the end of the cycle to remind you to remove the clothes.
If you select the EXTENDED TUMBLE option, the signal will sound at the end of the drying time and will
sound several times during the EXTENDED TUMBLE cycle. This will remind you that it is time to remove
the clothes.
Note:
• Remove garments promptly at the sound of signal. Place clothes on hangers so wrinkles won’t set
in.
• Use the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL especially when drying fabrics like polyester knits and permanent
press. These fabrics should be removed so wrinkles won’t set in.
• If the beeper is turned off, the dryer will go in Idle state and the control will display a "00" for up to
6 minutes unless the door is opened or the Stop/Cancel key is pressed.
Extended Tumble (Wrinkle Care)
Use this option to minimize the wrinkles in clothes. It provides approximately 1 hour of no-heat
tumbling after the clothes are dry.
If the EXTEND TUMBLE option is selected, at the end of the cycle, "00" will be displayed on the segment
display. At this moment, the control beeps every 90 seconds, provided the user turned the beeper
on. If the user turns off the beeper, then there will not be any beep. If the user deselects (i.e., turns off)
the EXTEND TUMBLE option while the cycle is in EXTEND TUMBLE mode, then the dryer immediately
stops. If the EXTEND TUMBLE and SIGNAL option is selected, the signal will sound every five minutes
while EXTEND TUMBLE is running.

Sensor Dry
Drum Lamp
Before replacing the light bulb, be sure to
unplug the dryer power cord or disconnect
the dryer at the household distribution panel
by removing the fuse or switching off the
circuit breaker. Reach above dryer
opening
from inside the drum. Remove the
bulb and
replace with the same size bulb.
Sensor Dry (on some models)
This feature is only activated in the
COTTONS, EASY CARE and DELICATES
cycles.
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.
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".
Drying Rack (on some models)
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:
The drying rack must be used with the
TIMED CYCLE.
Do not use this drying rack when there
are other clothes in the dryer.
Stainless Steel Drum (on some models)
The stainless steel used to make the
dryer drum provides the highest reliability
available in a GE 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.

Operation Overview
Air enters the dryer cabinet, passing thru the heating elements and into the drum. The hot air heats the wet
clothes and gradually removes their moisture in the form of water vapor. The moist air is vented through
the dryer exhaust. Overall heater temperature is regulated by means of two temperature sensors: an inlet
sensor located near the heating elements, and an outlet sensor located at the blower. An additional safety
thermostat, located near the heating elements, shuts off the heating elements if they overheat. Also, the
outlet backup thermostat, located near the blower, provides additional safety and cycles the heaters if
temperature goes above the outlet temperature range.

The typical dryer cycle progresses as follows:
1. A cycle is selected and the start key is pressed.
2. The motor is activated.
3. The heater elements (burner for gas models) are activated. The elements (burner) cycle on and off to
achieve the desired temperature throughout the heating portion of the cycle.
4. If sensor drying is selected, the heater elements (burner for gas models) are activated. The elements
(burner) cycle on and off until the load has achieved the desired dryness level.
5. If timed drying is selected, the heater elements (burner for gas models) are activated and cycle on and off
for the selected time at the selected temperature.
6. If STEAM DEWRINKLE or STEAM REFRESH is selected, the water valve is activated during heater elements
cycle on time (burner on time for gas models). See Cycle Matrix Chart on page 15.
7. The heater elements (burner for gas models) discontinue operation after the dryness level or elapsed time
has been achieved.
8. The motor continues operating until the clothes temperature drops below specified temperature (Cool
Down).
9. The display turns off.
