Electric

 

• If drying items in dryer is recommended by the manufacturer, dry as for wool.

 

• Do not stretch the blanket because of the wiring.

 

• Some electric blankets may have an insulation on the thermostats or on the wiring

 

 

which will not withstand dryer heat. Do not dryer dry unless the blanket

 

 

manufacturer says it can be done.

• Some blankets are fluffy and will shed lint. Tumble on NO HEAT Fabric Selector

 

 

setting before washing to remove loose lint.

 

• Dry in dryer until just dry.

 

• Clean lint filter half way through drying cycle.

Thermal Cotton

Choose AUTOMATIC REGULAR/DELICATE cycle.

Wool

Agitation and tumbling contribute to the shrinkage and felting of wool. Follow blanket

 

 

manufacturer’s instructions for proper care.

 

• Use approximately five dry bath towels and place them between folds in blanket to

 

 

lessen the tumbling.

 

• Set dryer for 20 minutes on the TIME DRY cycle. Use REGULAR Fabric Selector

 

 

setting. Check blanket when timer reaches 10. Wool blankets must be removed from

 

 

the dryer when damp.

 

• Stretch item gently to shape and finish drying in a flat position.

• DO NOT dry in the dryer unless recommended by the manufacturer.

 

 

• Fiberglass may shred. Particles may remain in the dryer and rub off on the next load.

 

• “Beta” fiberglass may be dryer dried if recommended by the manufacturer.

Synthetic Fibers

• Choose DELICATE or NO HEAT Fabric Selector settings.

 

 

• Allow room for tumbling to prevent wrinkling.

 

• Delicate or sheer curtains must be dried by themselves so they will not be snagged by

 

 

hooks or crushed by other clothes in the load.

 

• Some sheer curtains are heat sensitive. Dry 10 minutes only, plus the cool down
