■
Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total
wash load.
■
Do not wash single items. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.
Exterior:
Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe with damp cloth. Try not to hit surface with
sharp objects.
Interior:
Dry around the washer door opening, flexible gasket and door glass. These areas should
always be clean to ensure a water tight seal.
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. When moving the washer, the tub
should be kept stationary by using the brackets and bolts removed during installation. See
Installation Instructions in this book. If these parts are not available, they can be ordered in the
United States by visiting our Website at www.GEAppliances.com or by calling 800-GE-CARES. In
Canada, write to Manager, Consumer Relations, Camco Inc., 1 Factory Lane, Suite 310, Moncton,
N.B. E1C 9M3.
Long Vacations:
Be sure water supply is shut off at faucets. Drain all water from hoses if weather will be
below freezing.
Sort laundry into loads that can be washed together.
