Drying tips

l Articles to be ironed should be removed from the dryer while still damp.

l Dry only clean items. Soiled items can leave stains on the dryer drum. These stains can be picked up by other items in the bad. Dryer heat may permanently set some stains.

Dryer fabric softeners

Dryer fabric softeners are recommended for reducing static cling and for softening fabrics. Always follow package instructions carefully.

NOTE: Static can also be reduced by not overdrying.

For best results, put fabric softener sheet on top of the bad before starting the dryer. DO NOT add a fabric softener sheet after the cycle has started. Instant heat can cause the fabric softener to spot fabrics.

Clear, grease-like spots can result from the fabric softener sheet becoming tangled or wrapped in an item during tumbling. If fabric softener causes a stain, wet the stain and rub with liquid detergent or bar soap then wash.

Some dryer fabric softeners can clog the lint screen and stow drying. Use only fabric softeners labeled as dryer safe.

Dry only full loads without overdrying.

Avoid overloading dryer, adding wet items to a partly dried load, or opening the door unnecessarily. Plan your laundry to dry one load after another. A warm dryer shortens drying time.

Shorten drying times by:

-keeping the lint screen clean.

-using your dryer in a room where room air temperature is above 45°F (7°C). -exhausting dryer properly.

-sorting loads by fabric weight and type.
