DRYING TIPS
H
• Close zippers, snaps, and hooks to
avoid snagging other items. Remove
heat-sensitive trim that can be damaged
by drying. Tie strings and sashes so
they will not tangle.
• Check garments for spots and stains
left after washing. Do not tumble these
items. Heat may permanently set stains.
• Check pockets before drying. Sharp or
metal objects can damage your dryer.
Do not lay these objects on your dryer,
they can damage the finish. Turn
pockets of heavy garments inside out
for even drying.
• Place small items such as baby socks
or hankies in laundry bag for easier
removal.
• Articles to be ironed should be
removed while still damp.
USING DRYER
FABRIC SOFFENERS
Dryer fabric softeners are recomrnended
for reducing static cling. Always follow
package instrucitions carefully.
• Put one fabric softener sheet on top
of the load before starting the dryer.
Do not add a fabric softener sheet after
the drying cycle has started. Instant
heat can caus e the fabric softener to
spot fabrics.
• Remove fabric softener stains by wet­
ting the stains, and rubbing them with
liquid detergent or bar soap and rewash.
• Some fabric s;ofteners can clog the lint
screen and slow drying. Use fabric soft­
eners labeled as dryer safe.
SAVING ENERGY
. Use the AUTO DRY Cycle to dry
most loads.
• Dry full loads only. Do not overdry.
• Avoid overloading dryer, adding wet
items to a partly dried load, or opening
the door unnecessarily.
• Shorten drying times by exhausting
dryer properly and cleaning exhaust
vent and outside exhaust hood as
needed.
• Keep the lint screen clean.
• Use dryer where room air temperature
is above 45° F.
• Sort loads bv' fabric weight and type.
