GE Profile™ UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer - Exterior Case

Your GE Profile™ UltraFast Combo Washer/Dryer exterior is easy to maintain. Here are some tips to keep your Combo looking its best.

Ultrafast Combo Exterior Cleaning Tips

  • Use a damp cloth to wipe off any dust and dirt that may accumulate on your Comb's exterior case or on the control panel. Do not wipe any exterior surfaces with abrasive cloths or cleaners.
  • Any detergent, fabric softener, or pretreatment spills should be immediately wiped off the Combo's exterior surfaces with a sanitizing wipe or non-abrasive damp cloth. Because the Combo's control panel and paint finish may be damaged by some laundry pretreatment and stain remover products, we recommend applying these products away from the washer.

Ultrafast Combo Exterior Care Tips

  • Surface Damage:
    • Do not hit the Combo's exterior surfaces with sharp objects, as it can damage the painted metal surface of the Combo. Should you experience accidental damage to the painted finish, a Black Slate (also known as Dark Slate) touch-up paint, part # WR97X22706, can be used.
  • Magnets:
    • The top, sides, and front are steel, except for the control panel and door. It is okay to place magnetic items on the sides, front, and top of the Combo, noting that the top will get warm during operation.
  • Storing items on top of the Combo:
    • Items such as large detergent containers are fine to sit on top of the Combo case; they are best placed near the edges. When doing this, you may want to place something like a carpet remnant on the top of the unit to protect the paint. However, the top should not be stepped on or used for storage of very heavy items, boxes, etc.
  • Warm Case:
    • It is normal for the exterior case of your Combo to feel warm to the touch.  In fact, the right rear corner, including the top, sides, and rear panel, may feel very warm at times due to the compressor location.
