Lint or residue on clothes can be caused by several factors. Here are some possible causes and solutions: 1. Clothes are air or line dried: If you do not dry your clothes with a clothes dryer, they may retain more lint. Consider using a clothes dryer to reduce lint. 2. Incorrect sorting: Separate clothes that produce lint from those that collect lint when sorting your laundry. This can help prevent lint transfer. 3. Washing too long: Wash smaller loads for a shorter time using the Light Soil setting. This can help reduce lint accumulation. 4. Detergent not dissolving: If the detergent is not dissolving properly, rewash the clothes. Consider using a liquid detergent and warmer water temperature. 5. Overloading: Loosely load clothes in the washer basket and avoid overloading. For best results, load items around the outside of the basket. 6. Incorrect use of fabric softener: Check the fabric softener package for instructions and follow the directions for using the dispenser. Make sure you have selected the Deep Rinse option if available. 7. Clothes too wet: Make sure the selected cycle matches the load you are washing. Some fabrics may feel wetter when rinsed with cold water. If the load is unbalanced, redistribute the clothes in the washer and run a Drain & Spin cycle.

Where does fabric softener go?

Emma of manua.lsOctober 25, 2023

The fabric softener for the GE GTW220ACK5WW washing machine should be placed in the fabric softener dispenser. To access the fabric softener dispenser, follow these steps: 1. Remove the dispenser from the top of the agitator. 2. Separate the dispenser cup from the cover by holding the top and pushing down on the inside of the cup with your fingers. The dispenser cup will come off the cover. 3. To clean the dispenser, soak both the dispenser cup and the dispenser cover in a solution of warm water, heavy-duty liquid detergent, and bleach. 4. If needed, remove any buildup with a clean, soft cloth after soaking. Avoid using a stiff brush as it may damage the dispenser's surface. 5. Rinse and put the dispenser back together. 6. Place the dispenser back on the agitator.

The laundry detergent should be placed at the bottom of the wash basket before adding clothes in the GE GTW220ACK5WW washing machine. It is recommended to use High Efficiency (HE) detergents because they are designed to work with low water wash and rinse systems, and they help prevent excessive sudsing issues that can occur with regular detergents. Using too much detergent will affect the washing performance negatively.

Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the GE GTW220ACK5WW below.

What temperature should I use for my laundry?

The washing label of your garment shows the recommended washing temperature.

Do I need to use an anti-scaling agent for my washing machine?

It is not necessary to use an anti-scaling agent. Scale deposits can be prevented by limiting washing at high temperatures and using the recommended amount of detergent per wash.

How do I prevent my washing machine from smelling?

Unpleasant odours can be avoided by occasionally washing at 60 degrees and using the recommended amount of detergent per wash.

Why isn't my washing machine turning on?

Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet and ensure the outlet has power. Also, make sure the lid is closed properly, as some models require the lid to be closed for operation.

Why is my washing machine not draining water?

Verify that the drain hose is correctly connected to a drain or utility sink. Ensure that the hose is not kinked or clogged. Additionally, check the washer's control settings to ensure the proper drain cycle is selected.

How do I resolve excessive vibrations during the spin cycle?

Ensure that the washing machine is placed on a level surface to prevent excessive vibrations. If necessary, adjust the leveling feet to stabilize the appliance. Avoid overloading the machine, as this can also lead to increased vibrations.

Why does my washing machine produce an unpleasant odor?

Perform regular cleaning cycles using a washing machine cleaner recommended by GE. Leave the lid or door open after each use to allow for proper ventilation and drying, which helps combat odors. Additionally, avoid leaving wet clothes inside the washer for extended periods.

What can I do if my clothes are not getting clean?

Check that the detergent dispenser is clean and not clogged. Verify that you are using the appropriate amount and type of detergent for the load size and soil level. Consider selecting a different wash cycle or using additional options such as pre-soak or extra rinse if necessary.
