Sorting your laundry
●Check symbols on clothing labels to make sure that the articles can be tumble dried.
●Sort laundry by fabric type.
●Empty pockets and check buttons.
●Close zippers and hooks and tie loose belts and strings.
●Wring out each item in order to eliminate as much excess water as possible.
!Do not load dripping wet clothes into the dryer.

●Articles that containing rubber or
●Glass fibres (certain types of draperies)

●Large bulky items (quilts, sleeping bags, pillows, cushions, large bedspreads etc). These expand when drying and would prevent airflow through the dryer.
