Frequently Asked Questions - GNW128PSMWW GE

Why does the water level seem low?
This is normal for a high-efficiency washer. Water may not cover all the laundry. Use less detergent and select the Deep Fill option if necessary.
What to do in case of excess suds?
Use a high-efficiency (HE) detergent in the right amount. Reduce dosage if water is soft or load is small.
Why doesn't the water drain?
Check that the drain hose is not kinked or clogged. The maximum drain height is 2.44 m (8 ft). Straighten the hose and make sure it is properly connected.
The washer makes a clicking noise during filling, is this normal?
Yes, it is the sound of the water valves opening and closing to regulate water temperature. It is normal.
How to clean the drum?
Use the Whites cycle with the Deep Fill option and add 125 ml (1/2 cup) of bleach. Run the cycle empty. Repeat at least once a month.
Why does the washer stop during spin?
This is normal: the washer may interrupt the spin to redistribute the load or correct an imbalance. If the Spin light flashes, manually redistribute the laundry and start a Spin cycle.
What to do if powder detergent does not dissolve?
Use warmer water temperature if possible, or switch to liquid detergent. Make sure the dispenser is not clogged.
How to install the washer correctly?
Follow installation instructions: level the machine, connect water hoses (hot on right, cold on left), attach drain hose at least 76 cm high, and plug into a grounded outlet.
Detergent pods do not dissolve, why?
Never place pods in the dispenser. Place them directly at the bottom of the drum before adding laundry.
Why is there still water in the dispenser after the cycle?
A small amount of residual water is normal. Remove the dispenser drawer and empty it. Clean it regularly to prevent clogs.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WARNING

To reduce the risk of death, fire, explosion, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

  • Read all instructions before using the appliance.
    ■ Follow all fabric care instructions and warnings to prevent melting of garments or damage to the appliance.
    ■ DO NOT wash or dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
    ■ DO NOT add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
    ■ Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using a washing machine, turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, DO NOT smoke or use an open flame during this time.
    ■ DO NOT allow children to play on or in this appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when this appliance is used near children. Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door or lid. Failure to follow these instructions may result in death or injury to persons.
    ■ DO NOT reach into the appliance if the tub or agitator is moving to prevent accidental entanglement.
    ■ For waterproof, water-resistant and bulky items, only use the Delicates cycle. DO NOT use other cycles for these items. Using other cycles can cause excessive vibration and may result in injury or damage to the washer, walls, or floor. DO NOT mix waterproof and non-waterproof items.
    ■ DO NOT install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
    ■ DO NOT tamper with controls, repair or replace any part of this appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user maintenance instructions or in published user repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
    ■ DO NOT climb or stand on this unit.
    ■ DO NOT operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts including a damaged cord or plug.

Consumer Help Indicator

Your washer is equipped with Consumer Help Indicator (CHI). CHI is our way to communicate a simple remedy for some situations that you can perform without the need to call for service. The chart below describes the helpful messages you may notice on your display when you return to start another load. These messages will provide simple remedies you can quickly perform.
Spin light blinkingIf an out-of-balance condition is detected by the washer, the Spin light will blink during the remaining portion of the cycle and will stay illuminated for a short time after cycle completion. When this occurs, the washer is taking actions to correct the out-of-balance condition and complete the cycle normally. In some cases, the washer may not be able to balance the load and spin up to full speed. If you notice the load is more wet than normal at the end of the cycle, redistribute the load evenly in the wash basket and run a Spin cycle. To run a Spin cycle, select the Normal cycle and press the Process button until only the Spin light is on.
Check your house water supply. Did you forget to turn on one or both supply valves after installation or coming back from vacation?
Indicates the lid is open. Close the lid.
Indicates the laundry load is unbalanced. Reposition laundry evenly in basket, and ensure washer is level.
Indicates water has reached a critical level. Turn off water and power to the washer and call service.

Detergent Dispenser

HE detergent should be added to the left side of the dispenser drawer.

For liquid detergent, leave cup in drawer.

For powder detergent, remove left cup (two parts) from drawer.

Follow the detergent manufacturer's recommendations for the correct amount of detergent, based on load size, taking care to add detergent to the left compartment. Do not overfill or dilute detergent as this can result in additive being dispensed prematurely in the wash cycle. Your option selections will determine when detergent is automatically dispensed at its optimal time in the wash cycle. For optimal performance, especially when selecting cooler temperature and in cold weather climates, place powdered HE detergent directly in the wash basket before adding clothes.

NOTE: Single-dose laundry packets should not be added to the dispenser drawer, as they will not dispense properly. Put packets in bottom of wash basket.

Liquid Fabric Softener/Conditioner Dispenser

Deep Rinse should be selected when using fabric softener.

Liquid fabric softener/conditioner should be added to the right side of the dispenser drawer. Follow the liquid fabric softener/conditioner manufacturer's recommendations for the correct amount of softener/conditioner, based on load size, taking care to add softener/conditioner to the right compartment. Do not overfill or dilute softener/conditioner as this can result in additive being dispensed prematurely in the wash cycle. Your option selections will determine when liquid fabric softener/conditioner is automatically dispensed at its optimal time in the rinse cycle.

NOTE: Fabric softener crystals should NOT be added to the dispenser drawer, as they will not dispense properly.

GE GNW128PSMWW - Liquid Fabric Softener/Conditioner Dispenser - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a washing machine interior showing the drain and front panel (no text or symbols)

Liquid Bleach Dispenser

Liquid chlorine bleach should be added through the bleach dispenser in the front left corner. Follow bleach manufacturer's recommendations for the correct amount of liquid chlorine bleach based on load size, taking care to not apply or spill it directly on clothing.

NOTE: Do not use liquid chlorine bleach and laundry pretreatments such as an Oxi product in the same wash load.

GE GNW128PSMWW - Liquid Bleach Dispenser - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a hand pouring liquid into a washing machine (no text or symbols)

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 pulses of the motor at the beginning of the cycle. 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.

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.

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

GE GNW128PSMWW - WARNING - 1

- 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. Lift the lid and submerge additional items around the outside of the basket. Close the lid and press Start to resume.

■ 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.

Improper sorting Avoid mixing heavy items (like jeans) with light items (like blouses). Try a fabric softener.
Overloading Loosely load clothes in the washer basket.
Repeated washing in water that is too hot
Sounds Possible Causes Reason
“Clicking” Shifter mechanism is engaging or disengagingThe drive system will engage at the start of agitate and disengage when agitate is complete. This occurs multiple times during the wash.
Back and forth “swoosh”Electric motor reversing directionThis sound is the motor rotating back and forth to clean your laundry.
“Clicking” behind Control during fillAutomatic Temperature Control ValveTwo valves mix cold and hot water. The “clicking” is when either valve turns on or off to raise or lower the fill water temperature.
Water flow changes during fillAutomatic Temperature Control ValveTwo valves mix cold and hot water. The “clicking” is when either valve turns on or off to raise or lower the fill water temperature.
Motor sounds during spinMotor ramping up/down during spin cycleThe motor will speed up incrementally during the spin cycle. When spin is complete, it will coast until it stops.
“Humming”Water drain pumpThe drain pump will make a humming sound when pumping out water after agitation stops and continue until spin is complete.
Drive motorThe drive motor will make a “humming” sound during the wash and spin phases of the cycle.
“Gurgling”Water drain pumpWhen the pump starts drawing in air, It starts to gurgle. The washer should then begin spinning and the sound will continue until it is done spinning.
Water “swishing”Washing processWater swishing while the unit is agitating is normal, especially with smaller loads.
