IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire

or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

WATER HEATER SAFETY

Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks

or more. Hydrogen gas can be explosive under these circumstances.

If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning

all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical

appliance

which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen

gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.

PROPER INSTALLATION

This washer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions

before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet, you can receive one by visiting

GEAppliances.com, or by calling 800.GE.CARES (800.432.2737).

■ Keep the area underneath and around your

appliances free of combustible materials such as

lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.

■ Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is

used by or near children. Do not allow children

to play on, with, or inside this or any other

appliance.

YOUR LAUNDRY AREA

■ Never reach into washer while it is moving.

Wait until the machine has completely stopped

before opening the lid.

■ Do not mix chlorine bleach with ammonia or

acids such as vinegar and/or rust remover.

Mixing different chemicals can produce

a toxic gas which may cause death.

■ Do not wash or dry articles that have been

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with

combustible or explosive substances (such as

wax, oil, paint, gasoline,

degreasers, dry-cleaning

solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or

explode. Do not add these substances to the

wash water. Do not use or place these substances

around your washer or dryer during operation.

■

The laundry process can reduce the flame

retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,

carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s

wash and care instructions.

■ To minimize the possibility of electric shock,

unplug this appliance from the power supply

or disconnect the washer at the building’s

distribution panel by removing the fuse or

switching off the circuit breaker before

attempting any maintenance or cleaning.

NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector Knob to an

off position, or pressing PAUSE does NOT

disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

■ Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is

damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or

has missing or broken parts, including a damaged

cord or plug.

WHEN USING THE WASHER

■ Turn off water faucets to relieve pressure on hoses

and valves and to minimize leakage if a break or

rupture should occur. Check the condition of the

fill hoses; they should be replaced every 5 years.

■ Before discarding a washer, or removing it

from service, remove the washer lid to prevent

children from hiding inside.

■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of

this appliance unless specifically recommended in

this Owner’s Manual, or in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the

skills to carry out.

■ Do not tamper with controls.

WHEN NOT IN USE

What is the difference in usage between a washer-dryer and a separate washing machine and dryer? Verified

Can I stack my dryer and washing machine? Verified

In general it is possible to directly stack a dryer and washing machine directly on top of each other. This only works with front loading models. However, it is advisable to use a fitting accessory to do so. This will prevent the machines from vibrating and falling off and also prevents damage to the bottom machine.

Can I connect a washing machine to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a washing machine, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the washing machine is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord can handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

Can my GE appliance also run on a generator? Verified

In general this is possible, but always check this with the manufacturer of your generator. Also be aware that some appliances require a lot of power when starting up (ie: refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners). It's also a good idea to use a generator that is voltage regulated and surge protected. When in doubt you should contact the manufacturer.
