If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by
turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any
electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any
built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or
appliance during this process.

nDo not wash or dry articles that have been
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with
combustible or explosive substances (such as

these substances to the wash water. Do not use or
place these substances around your washer or

nThe laundry process can reduce the flame
retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,
carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s

nTo minimize the possibility of electric shock,
unplug this appliance from the power supply

Quick Start Guide
About the control panel—for models with START button.
Signal
nSelect for an end of cycle signal.
Temperature
Select the water temperature for the wash and rinse cycles. Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label or instructions when
laundering.
erfecTemp senses the incoming water temperature and adjusts the fill water to obtain a more precise temperature range for all wash
temperatures. For example, in a COLD wash selection, some warm water may be added to reach a temperature needed to better
dissolve detergents. Often, detergents are not completely dissolved in very cold water, especially in cooler climates.
During winter months, when the water entering your home is colder, or for locations with very cold water year round, use the
erfecTemp plus COLD to help dissolve powdered detergents and to improve the cleaning of your clothes.
The TA COLD feature turns the erfecTemp feature on your washer off and uses your household tap water temperature for a COLD
wash. This can provide energy savings by reducing the amount of hot water used in your wash. Cold waster will be added to hot water
to optimize performance.
Options
2nd Rinse Option 43842*24)*18
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, you may want to use the 2nd Rinse option.
It provides an enhanced second cold rinse.
Extended Spin Option 43842*24)*18
Use this option to extract more water from your clothes. Clothes will be drier when this option is selected and will dry more quickly in

Cleaning the Fabric Softener Dispenser 43842*24)*18
The Fabric Softener Dispenser is self cleaning. This dispenser does not require regular cleaning
like standard fabric softener dispensers. Wipe down exterior surfaces of the dispenser
as needed. If cleaning of the internal dispenser components is needed, follow these steps
after the wash cycle is complete:
The Fabric Softener Dispenser 43842*24)*18
Lift the tab on the fabric softener
dispenser top.
Measure out fabric softener into
the cap and pour the softener into
the dispenser top. The fabric softener
will drain into the receiving cup inside
the dispenser. Use only “Ultra” or
concentrated fabric softeners.
Push down on the tab to close
the dispenser top. Make sure the tab
is pushed down fully and snaps shut.
Select FABRIC SOFTENER from SETTINGS
on the control panel.
NOTE: Overfilling the dispenser will cause
fabric softener to drain out of the holes in the
side of the infusor when filling. Do not overfill.

Add detergent and fabric softener before adding
items so that the detergent can work effectively.
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.
GE recommends the use of High Efficiency
detergents in all Energy Star rated washers.
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
amount required for optimum performance.
Excessive detergent will negatively impact wash
performance.

Care and cleaning of the washer.
Wash Basket: Leave the lid open after washing to allow
moisture to evaporate. If you want to clean
the basket, use a clean, soft cloth dampened with liquid
detergent; then rinse. (Do not use harsh or
gritty cleaners.)
Fill Hoses: GE recommends changing the hoses
every 5 years.
Exterior: Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe
with damp cloth. Try not to hit surface with
sharp objects.
Interior: The occasional use of a cycle that contains
bleach will keep the inside of the washer clean.
Glass Lid: Use a clean, soft cloth dampened with vinegar
and water solution.
Note: Do not use any cleaners that contain ammonia.
Moving and Storage: Ask the service technician
to remove water from drain pump and hoses.

information on how to reinstall the shipping
rod to keep the tub stationary when moving
the washer. For more information, visit
GEAppliances.com
or call 800.GE.CARES (800.432.2737). Do not store
the washer where it will be exposed to the weather.
Long Vacations: Be sure water supply is shut off
at faucets. Drain all water from hoses if weather will
be below freezing.
