Sorting and Loading Hints
As a general rule, if clothes are sorted
properly for the washer, they are sorted properly
for the dryer. Try also to sort items according to size.
For example, do not dry a sheet with socks or other
small items.
Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load
has become warm. They may cause fabric softener
stains. Bounce® 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 drg the following items: fiberglass items,
woolens, rubber-coated items, plastics, items with
plastic trim and foam-filled items.
