Getting started
Cycle Options
F
Deep Fill
Select the Deep Fill feature for loads where extra water is desired.
The Deep Fill feature is recommended for special case
loads only, not for typical use.
Press and release the Deep Fill button once before starting the cycle to add 3 addition gallons of water to the wash load.
Holding the Deep Fill button for 3 seconds will provide the deepest fill level possible; this will increase cycle time due to the
additional time it takes to fill the washer.
To cancel the option if desired, press the Deep Fill button again.
NOTE: The Deep Fill button can also be pressed after the washer has completed filling and is in the wash phase if
additional water is desired. To stop the extra fill, press the Deep Fill button again and the water will stop.
Power Pre-wash
(on some models)
Ideal for heavily soiled loads, this cycle option works with SmartDispense™ to add a brief wash, soak and drain cycle to
loosen and remove heavy soil before starting the cycle selected.
Tangle Control™
(on some models)
Setting this option will adjust your wash cycle to aid in the prevention of tangling. Your cycle time may increase when this
option is selected. NOTE: This option is not allowed for some cycles.
Auto Soak
This option begins with a brief agitation, soaks for a specified period of time, then moves through the rest of the cycle
automatically. Repeated pressing of the Soak button will scroll through 15 minute, 30 minute, 1 hour and 2 hour selections
and then return back to 0 soak minutes.
Deep Rinse
Set this option to provide a deep rinse or when using fabric softener. It may change other settings (e.g. Spin may go to a
higher setting) to maximize performance. Option available on all wash cycles.
Delay Wash
When the Delay Wash button is repeatedly pressed, the delay time is set from 1 (01H) to 9 (09H) hours and back to clear
(00H) hours. If you press and hold the Delay Wash button for 3 seconds, it will immediately reset.
Extra Rinse
When you use extra detergent or bleach to clean heavily soiled clothes, use the Extra Rinse option to better remove
additional residues. NOTE: This option is not allowed for some cycles.
Smart Wash
(on some models)
When enabled, the Smart Wash option will automatically sense the soil level of the load and adjust the wash cycle
accordingly (adding or removing agitation and soaking times) to achieve excellent wash performance while minimizing wear.
Smart Rinse
(on some models)
The Smart Rinse feature senses the amount of soil and detergent in the current laundry cycle and determines whether
additional water is needed to ensure a thorough rinse keeping fabrics performing like new for longer.
My Cycle Settings
(on some models)
As the cycle selector knob is turned, the Temp, Soil and Spin settings change to automatic pre-set default settings for each
cycle. If you desire different default settings, select the desired options or changes to the cycle settings, then press and hold
the My Cycle button for 3 seconds to store them. The My Cycle button will light when active. In the future, when you
turn the selector knob to that cycle, your settings will be automatically recalled. To restore the factory defaults temporarily
(i.e. for this load), press the My Cycle button for 1/2 second. The My Cycle light will turn off and the factory defaults will
load. However, the next time you select this cycle, your My Cycle settings will load. If you wish to permanently restore the
factory default settings for the cycle; when the My Cycle is active (button light on) press and hold the My Cycle button for 3
seconds. The factory defaults will load for the selected cycle and the My Cycle light will turn off. The default settings will load
when this cycle is selected in the future and the My Cycle light will remain off. NOTE: My Cycle saves the following options:
Temp, Soil, Spin, Extra Rinse, Deep Fill, Auto Soak, Deep Rinse, Tangle Control, Auto, Power Clean and Gentle Care.
Sound
(on some models)
Use the Volume button to change the volume of the end of cycle signal and other system tones. Press the button until you reach
the desired volume (high, medium, low) or off. On some models, this feature may only be available through the GE Appliances
SmartHQ App.
Control Lock
Use the control lock before or during a cycle to prevent any selections from being made.
To lock/unlock the washer controls, press and hold the Rinse and Spin buttons for 3 seconds. The control lock icon will
light up when it is on.
NOTE: The Power button can still be used when the machine is locked.
