Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on the following:

•Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle: towels and delicate items retain a lot of water.

•Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture and thickness may have different drying times.

•Amount of laundry: single items and small loads will take a short time to dry.

•Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require complete drying can be left longer.

•Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of the room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry clothing.

•Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the drying process. We suggest removing these items and replacing them in

the dryer once they have been shaken out: repeat this procedure several times during the course of the drying cycle.

￿Do not over-dry items.

All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep them soft and fluffy.
