Special clothing items
Blankets and Bedspreads:
acrylic items (Acilan,
Courtelle, Orion, Dralon) must be dried with special
care on LOW heat setting. Avoid drying for a long
period of time.
Pleated or creased garments:
read the manufacturer’s
drying instructions on the garment.
Starched articles:
do not dry these with non-
starched items. Make sure that as much of the
starch solution is removed from the load as possible
before placing it in the dryer. Do not over-dry: the
starch will become powdery and leave your clothing
limp, which defeats the purpose of starch.
Drying times
Times are approximate and can vary depending upon:
●
Amount of water retained in clothes after spin
cycle: towels and delicates retain a lot of water.
●
Fabrics: items that are the same type of fabric but
different textures and thicknesses may not have
the same drying time.
●
Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads
may take longer to dry.
●
Dryness: If you are going to iron some of your
clothes, they can be taken out while still a bit
damp. Others can be left longer if you need them
to be completely dry.
●
Heat setting.
●
Room temperature: if the room where the dryer is
located is cold, it will take longer for the dryer to
dry your clothes.
●
Bulk: some bulky items can be tumble dried with
care. We suggest that you remove these items
several times, shake them out, and return them to
the dryer until finished.
!
Do not over-dry your clothes.
All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, which
keeps them soft and fluffy.
