Use and Care Manual
24 OPERATION-DRYER
NOTE
overload the dryer; clothes require room to 
tumble and dry properly.
Grouping Similar Items
For the best drying results, and to reduce the 
possibility of damage to clothing, sort clothes into 
loads that can be dried with the same drying cycle.
Different fabrics have different care requirements, 
and some fabrics will dry more quickly than others.
Woolen Items
Always follow fabric care labels before drying 
woolen items in a dryer. After the cycle, the items 
may still be damp. Do not repeat the cycle. Pull the 
items to their original shape if needed and lay 
them flat to finish drying.
Woven and Loopknit Materials
Some woven and loopknit materials may shrink, 
depending on quality.
Permanent Press and Synthetics
Do not overload your dryer. Take out permanent 
press items as soon as the dryer stops to reduce 
wrinkles.
Baby Clothes and Nightgowns
Rubber and Plastics
Do not dry any items made from or containing 
rubber or plastics such as:
Fiberglass
Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Glass 
particles left in the dryer could be picked up by 
your clothes the next time you use the dryer and 
irritate your skin.
Fabric Care Labels
Sort and dry laundry according to care labels, size, 
and fabric type. Do not overload the dryer. This will 
save energy and time and give the best drying 
performance.
