HOW TO SORT 

Sort by Surface Texture

Separate

LINT PRODUCERS—such as terry toweling and
chenille—give up lint.

LINT COLLECTORS—such as man-made fibers and
napped fabrics like velveteen and corduroy—attract
lint. These must be dried separately.

Sort by Fabric

Separate

In addition to
sorting to reduce
lint collection, we
recommend that you
wash fabrics of similar
construction together
whenever possible.

For information on tumble drying extra large
items and different fabrics and loads, see the
Controls Setting Guide.

HOW TO LOAD 

 

Don’t overload your dryer.
Crowded loads don’t dry
efficiently and clothes may
be unnecessarily wrinkled.

Loads should look like this:
