Drying,CycleandTemperatureTips

Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.

Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few minutes of all cycles to make the load easier to handle.

Drying tips

■Follow care label directions when they are available.

■If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package instructions.

■Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops, to reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent press, knits and synthetic fabrics.

Cycle and temperature tips

■Use a High heat setting for drying heavyweight items such as towels, work clothes and sheets.

■Use a Low heat setting for drying lightweight items such as lingerie, underwear, blouses, dresses, permanent press fabrics and some knits.

■Use a no-heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic or heat-sensitive fabrics.

■Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.

NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for various loads, refer to the care label directions. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select a lower setting rather than a higher setting.
