Follow these recommendations to help save on utility bills and prolong the life of your garments.
PREPARING CLOTHES
FOR DRYING
•Refer to your Washer Owner's Manual for proper washing techniques and additional laundry tips.
°See page 4 of this book for Important Safety Instructions.
SORTING CLOTHES
°Separate dark colors from light colors; colorfast from
properly sorted by color for washing are usually properly sorted for drying.
•Separate heavy fabrics (denim, towels) from light fabrics (synthetics, permanent press).
•Separate lint givers (towels, chenille) from lint takers (corduroy, synthetics, permanent press). When possible, turn lint takers inside out.
CHOOSING LOAD SIZES
•Mix large items with smaller items. Load the dryer by the amount of space items take up, not by their weight. Do not overload the dryer. Overcrowding causes uneven drying and wrinkling, and can cause items to wear out faster (because of pilling).
•You may need to rearrange large items (sheets, blarkets, tablecloths) during a cycle to reduce bailing or rolling up.
•For better tumbling action, when drying only a few small items, add one or two
