„Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first. Large items should not be more than half the total wash load.

„Washing single items is not recommended. This may cause an out-of-balance load. Add one or two similar items.

„Pillows and comforters should not be mixed with other items. This may cause an out-of-balance load.

„Sort dark-colored clothes from light-colored clothes to prevent dye transfer. This is a high-efficiency washer, so it uses less water, making dye transfer more common.

Loading the Washer

The wash drum may be fully loaded with loosely added items. Do not wash garments containing flammable materials (waxes, cleaning fluids, etc.).

Loading Examples*

To add items after the washer has started, press START/PAUSE and wait until the door is unlatched. The washer may take up to 30 seconds to unlock the door after pressing START/PAUSE, depending on the machine conditions. Do not try to force the door open when it is locked. After the door unlocks, open gently. Add items, close the door and press START/PAUSE to restart.

From delicate to bulky items, users can select the appropriate cycle to ensure their garments are treated gently while still achieving a thorough clean. The addition of features like steam cleaning helps to remove tough stains and allergens, providing a deeper clean without the need for harsh chemicals.

Users will appreciate the convenience offered by these models, which include features such as a programmable delay start, allowing users to set the washing machine to run at their convenience. Additionally, the user-friendly control panel features intuitive settings and an LED display, making it easy to select the desired wash cycle.

In terms of energy efficiency, these GE washing machines are designed to meet or exceed ENERGY STAR standards, ensuring that they consume less water and electricity compared to traditional models. This not only contributes to cost savings but also aligns with environmentally friendly practices.
