Sorting Wash Loads

Sort by color (whites, lights, colors), soil level, fabric type (sturdy cottons, easy care, delicates) and whether the fabric produces lint (terry cloth, chenille) or collects lint (velveteen, corduroy).

Proper use of detergent

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.

Loading the Washer

of the basket. To add items after washer has started, lift the lid and submerge additional items around the outside of the basket.
