Setting the Drying Temperature
If your dryer has multiple heat settings:
A High temperature setting may be used for drying heavyweight
items such as towels and work clothes.
A Low to Medium temperature setting may be used for drying
medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses,
underwear, permanent press fabrics, and some knits.
Use the Air Fluff (no heat) setting for foam, rubber, plastic, or
heat-sensitive fabrics.
Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for
various loads, refer to the care label directions.

Automatic cycles give the best drying in the
shortest time. Drying time varies based on
fabric type, load size, and dryness setting.
Select a drying temperature based on the
fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the
temperature to select for a load, select the
lower setting rather than the higher setting.
