Special Laundry Tips

Load the Dryer Properly

•Place only one washload in the dryer at a time.

•Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight clothes will dry differently. Lightweight clothes will dry, while heavy clothes may be damp.

•Add one or more similar items to the dryer when only one or two articles need drying. This improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency.

•Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some fabrics.

Please follow the care label or manufacturer’s instructions for drying special items. If care label instructions are not available, use the following information as a guide.
