Loading; Automatic Load Sensing; Proper Use Of Detergent; Sorting Wash Loads - GE GTW755 Owner's Manual & Installation Instructions

Loading

Always follow fabric manufacturer's care label when laundering.

Automatic Load Sensing

This determines the correct agitate profile, agitate duration and amount of water suited to the size and type of load placed in the
washer. The washer will not start the wash cycle or fill with water if the lid is open. When the lid is closed the machine is able to
begin filling with water in order to sense the load size.
NOTE: Automatic Load Sensing initiates a spin at the beginning of the cycle and will take as much as 3 minutes to complete
(significantly shorter for smaller loads); this is normal operation.
NOTE: This is a high efficiency washing machine. This system requires less water while providing effective cleaning action. You
may notice that the water level is lower than on your previous washer. This is normal for a high efficiency washer.
Pretreatment
Place laundry pretreatments, such as an Oxi product, directly in the bottom of the wash basket before loading clothes.
NOTE: Do not use liquid chlorine bleach and laundry pretreatments such as an Oxi product in the same wash load.

Proper Use of Detergent

Using too little or too much detergent is a common cause of
laundry problems.
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.
Place detergent pods in the bottom of the wash basket before
adding clothes.

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). Wash lint producers such as cotton towels and socks separate from
lint collectors including synthetic garments and dress pants.
WARNING
WARNING
Fire Hazard
DO NOT wash fabrics soiled with flammable liquids or cleaning solvents.
No washer can completely remove oil.
DO NOT wash or dry anything that has been soaked in or spotted with any type of oil (including cooking oils).
DO NOT reach into the washer until all moving parts have stopped.
Doing so can result in death, explosion, fire or amputation.

Loading the Washer

Load dry items loosely in the washer basket. For best results, load items evenly and loosely around the outside of the basket, filling in
towards the center on larger loads. To add items after washer has started, press Start/Pause if the lid is locked; wait until the Lid Lock
indicator on the display is no longer illuminated before attempting to open the lid. Lift the lid and submerge additional items around the
outside of the basket. Close the lid and press Start to resume. Adjust load size selection and/or use Deep Fill option if necessary.
■
Do not place large items such as
sheets, blankets and towels across
the Infusor. Load them around the
outside of the basket.
■
Do not put lawn or sofa cushions
into the washer as they are too big
to move. Remove outer covers and
ONLY wash them.

GE Appliances recommends the use of High Efficiency detergents
such as in your energy efficient washer. 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.
