Congratulations on the purchase of your new GE high-efficiency washer!
This HE washer has the new HydroWave™ system with Infusor™ wash technology. This system provides
excellent performance while using less water and energy than a conventional washer. You will notice some
differences during operation. Below is a list of quick tips to better understand your unit during normal
operation.

Reasons
During the wash cycle water may not entirely cover the top
of clothes. Infusor™ wash technology is at work and will
provide excellent cleaning.
The use of HE detergent will optimize wash performance
and prevent over sudsing.
Using the dispenser will ensure optimal distribution of
fabric softener and avoid spotting on garments.
3. Close Infusor™ Lid
Unit will not operate with lid open during "PreciseFill".
This is for your safety ‐ basket spins to aid in load sensing
– also allows option to perform properly.
HydroWave™ system is very quiet during portions of the
wash cycle. This action allows for optimal wash
performance.
At the beginning of the Cycle (with lid open or closed) the
smart drive system is sensing the load; as a result, there
will not be any noise.
The machine uses a (no gear) direct drive system. This is
the sound of the motor rotating back and forth to agitate
your laundry.
