Prepare items for drying.
Dry items of similar fabric, weight and construction in the same load.
Separate dark items from light-colored items. Separate items that shed lint
from those that attract lint. If an item sheds lint, turn it inside out.
Besure buckles, buttonsand trim are heatproof and won't damage the drum
finish. Close zippers, fasten hooks and Velcro®-Iike fasteners. Tie strings and
sashesto prevent tangling.
If possible, turn pockets inside out for even drying.
Check for stains which may not have been removed in washing. Dryer heat
may permanently set some stains. Repeat stain removal process before
drying.
Place small items in a mesh bag to prevent tangling and for easy removal.
Check that lint screen is dean and in place.
Load the dryer.
The average load will fill the drum 1/3 to 1/2 full. Items need room to tumble
freely for even drying and lesswrinkling. Do not overload dryer.
When drying large items, dry only 2 or 3 at a time. Fill out the load with small
and medium sized items.
For delicate or very small loads, add 2 lint-free towels for better drying, less
wrinkling, and to prevent grease stains caused by fabric softener sheets.
Fill dryer drum 1/3 to 1/2 full.
