Drying guidelines

Always follow care label directions when they are available.

The last few minutes of all cycles are without heat to make the load cooler to handle.

To help reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops. This is especially important for permanent press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.

Overdrying can cause shrinkage, static cling, and damage to some fabrics.
