Times
Modern dryers are designed with
drying temperatures needed to safely
handle modern fabrics. Cooldown
times hove been added to heat set-
trngs. You might notrce slightly longer
dryrng times
The time It takes to dry CI load
depends on
l
lbe knd of fabric, ifs weight and the
size of the iood A large load of jeans
WIII take a lot longer to dry than a small
load of light synthetics.
0 The amount of moisture in the iood
Towels hold a lot of moisture; synthetics
don't. Synthetics dry faster
l
Temperature of the rinse water Cold
rinses cause less wrinkling and help save
energy, but a cold load will take slightly
longer to dry than a warm one.
l
Amount of iint on the screen A full lint
screen slows the air flow and can make
drying time longer
l
Room femperoture The dryer heats
room air If the room temperature is not
above 45 F (7 2 C), drying time WIII
be longer and removal of wrrnkles may
be poor. Use a TIMED DRY Control

Proper instaiiation and exhaust sys-
terns For the fastest possrble drying
time, installing and exhausting your
dryer properly IS important. See installa-
