LOADING TIPS - DRYER
• Mix large items with small items.'
Load the dryer by the amount of space
items take up, not by their weight. Do
not overload the dryer. Overcrowding
causes uneven drying and wrinkling,
and can cause items to wear out faster
(because of pilling).
• You may need to rearrange large items
(sheets, blankets, tablecloths) during
a cycle to reduce bailing or rolling up.
• For better tumbling action, when drying
only a few small items, add one or two
lint-free towels. This also prevents small
lightweight items from blocking airflow.
SAVING ENERGY

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 dr_,ing times by exhausting
laundry center properly and cleaning
exhaust vent and outside exhaust
hood as needed.

USING DRYER
FABRIC SOFTENERS
Dryer fabric softeners are recommended
for reducing static cling. Always follow
package instructions 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 cause the fabric softener to
spot fabrics.
• Remove fabric softener stains by wetting
the stains and rubbing them with liquid
detergent or bar soap and rewash.
• Some fabric softeners can clog the lint
screen and slow drying. Use fabric
softeners labeled as dryer safe.
