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.

®

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.

Fabric Care Labels

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. Moisten your fingers and reach into the filter

opening. Run your fingers across the filter. Have a

qualified technician vacuum the lint from the dryer

once a year.

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:

Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the

plug from the wall socket.
Disconnect the duct from the dryer.
Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment and

reconnect the duct.

The Exhaust Hood:

Check with a mirror that the inside

flaps of the hood move freely when operating. Make

sure that there is not wildlife (birds, insects, etc.)

nesting inside the duct or hood.
