Drying times
The table (see below) presents APPROXIMATE drying times in Minutes. Weights refer to dry garments.
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
All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, which keeps them soft and fluffy.
