About loading and using the dryer.

 

Always follow the fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.

Sorting and Loading Hints

As a general rule, if clothes are sorted properly for 

the washer, they are sorted properly for the dryer.
Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load  

has become warm. They may cause fabric 

softener stains. Bounce

®

 Fabric Conditioner 

Dryer Sheets have been approved for use in all 

GE Dryers when used in accordance with the 

manufacturer’s instructions.

Do not overload.

 This wastes energy and causes 

wrinkling.

Do not dry the following items: 

fiberglass items, 

woolens, rubber-coated items, plastics, items with 

plastic trim and foam-filled items.

Care and Cleaning of the Dryer

The Exterior:

 Wipe or dust any spills or washing 

compounds with a damp cloth. Dryer control  

panel and finishes may be damaged by some 

laundry pretreatment soil and stain remover 

products. Apply these products away from the 

dryer. The fabric may then be washed and dried 

normally. Damage to your dryer caused by these 

products is not covered by your warranty.

The Lint Filter: 

Clean the lint filter before each use. 

Remove by pulling straight up. Run your fingers 

across the filter. A waxy buildup may form on the 

lint filter from using dryer added fabric softener 

sheets.
To remove this buildup, wash the lint screen in 

warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly and replace. 

Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter in 

place.
Vacuum the lint from the dryer lint filter area if you 

notice a change in dryer performance.

Stainless Steel: 

To clean stainless steel surfaces,  

use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner 

suitable for stainless steel surfaces. Remove the 

cleaner residue, and then dry with a clean cloth.

Dryer Interior and Duct: 

The interior of the appliance 

and exhaust duct should be cleaned once a year by 

qualified service personnel.

The Exhaust Duct: 

Inspect and clean the exhaust 

ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging.  

A partially clogged exhaust can lengthen the 

drying time.

Follow these steps:

1

  Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting  

the plug from the wall socket.

2

  Disconnect the duct from the dryer.

3

  Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment 

and reconnect the duct.

The Exhaust Hood: 

Check from the outside that  

the flaps of the hood move freely when operating. 

Make sure that there is not wildlife (birds, insects, 

etc.) nesting inside the duct or hood.
