Item
Special Instructions
Pillows
Check the care label – can the pillow be dried in the dryer?
Do not dry foam rubber pillows.
It is important that before placing a pillow in the dryer you check
for weak seams where feathers or fillings could escape.
You can dry one average sized pillow at a time.
Choose the BULKY cycle.
Check the pillow at regular intervals.
Note: It is important to completely dry the pillow to prevent
mildew from forming.
Blankets/Throws
Check the care label – can the blanket be dried in the dryer?
Include 4 – 5 medium sized towels along with the blanket for
cushioning. This will help stop shrinkage from over tumbling.
If you are drying more than one blanket, ensure they do not sit
higher than the top of the lint bucket, otherwise there will not be
enough space for them to tumble.
Choose the BULKY cycle.
On completion, remove the blanket, shake and, if needed, stretch
the blanket back to its original shape.
Note: It is important to completely dry the blanket to prevent
mildew from forming.

Foam rubber
Rubber-backed products
Do not dry products containing foam rubber, plastic or rubber on

is a FIRE RISK.
