Energy-Saving
Tips
1. Use dryer during non-peak energy-usage
hours. Contact your power company for
the most energy-efficient
times.
2. Dry only full loads.
3. DO NOT add wet items to partially dried
load.
4. DO NOT overdry items.
5. Shorten drying times by:
- cleaning lint screen before or after each
use.
- properly exhausting
the dryer.
- using the dryer in a warm room.
- not opening the dryer door often.
- loading the dryer with similar fabric
weights and types.
- not overloading
the dryer.
- drying loads one immediately
after
another.
Before You Dry
1. Check garments to make sure all spots
and stains were removed during the
wash. DO NOT tumble dry if stains still
exist. Heat may permanently
set stains.
Rewash stains, if necessary.
2. Turn pockets of heavy items inside out
for even drying.
3. Empty all pockets.
4. Turn fabrics that are lint-takers and dark
items inside out to help prevent lint
pickup.
5. Remove heat-sensitive
trims.
6. Tie strings and sashes to prevent
tangling.
7. Close zippers, snaps and hooks to avoid
snagging other items. Remove pins,
buckles and other hard objects to avoid
scratching the dryer drum.
