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:
Hoses connecting washer to faucet
should be replaced every 5 years.
Lint Filter:
The lint filter is located under the
agitator. It is self-cleaning and requires no
maintenance.
Exterior:
Immediately wipe off any spills.
Wipe with damp cloth. Try not to hit surface
with sharp objects.
Moving and Storage:
Ask the service technician to
remove water from drain pump and hoses. Do not
store the washer where it will be exposed to the
weather. Call the GE Answer Center

for information on how to keep the tub stationary
when moving the washer.
Long Vacations:
Be sure water supply is shut off at
faucets. Drain all water from hoses if weather will
be below freezing.
Loading and using the washer.
