temperatures below freezing or exposed to the weather,

governing codes and ordinances. Follow details
in Installation Instructions.
WARNING
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
DO NOT remove ground prong.
DO NOT use an adapter.
DO NOT use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or electrical shock.
Ensure washer is properly leveled and washer legs are
adjusted such that unit is stable.
START-UP SEQUENCE
Any time the washer is being started or restarts after the
washer lid has been opened and closed, the washer will
turn on the cold water valve for two short periods followed
by a 10 second pause before continuing.
WHEN NOT IN USE
Turn off water faucets to minimize leakage if a break or
rupture should occur. Check the condition of the fill hoses;
GE recommends changing the hoses every 5 years.
- Electrical Shock Hazard
Optional drain hose extension recommended for
discharging heights from 60" - 96".
This washer does not include water supply hoses.
GE strongly recommends the use of factory specified
parts. A list of factory hoses available for purchase are
listed. These hoses are manufactured and tested to meet
GE specifications.
GE strongly recommends the use of new water supply
hoses. Hoses degrade over time and need to be replaced
every 5 years to reduce the risk of hose failures and water
damage.
