Special clothing items

Blankets and Bedspreads: acrylic items (Acilan,
Courtelle,Orion, Dralon) must be dried with special
care on LOW heat setting. Avoid drying for a long
period of time.
Pleated or creased garments: read the manufacturer’s
drying instructions on the garment.
Starched articles: do not dry these with non-
starched items.Make sure that as much of the
starch solution is removed from the load as possible
before placing it in the dryer. Do not over-dry: the
starch will become powdery and leave your clothing
limp,which defeats the purpose of starch.

Times are approximate and can vary depending upon:
●Amount of water retained in clothes after spin
cycle: towels and delicates retain a lot of water.
●Fabrics: items that are the same type of fabric but
different textures and thicknesses may not have
the same drying time.
●Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads
may take longer to dry.
●Dryness: If you are going to iron some of your
clothes,they can be taken out while still a bit
damp.Others can be left longer if you need them
to be completely dry.
●Heat setting.
●Room temperature: if the room where the dryer is
located is cold, it will take longer for the dryer to
dry your clothes.
●Bulk: some bulky items can be tumble dried with
care.We suggest that you remove these items
several times,shake them out, and return them to
the dryer until finished.
!Do not over-dry your clothes.
All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, which
keeps them soft and fluffy.
