 minutes then check 

 Set 15 minutes for second setting, check

again; and 5 minutes for each additional setting. Make sure that article does not fill drum. Many large articles, when wet, have ample room in
dryer, but as they dry and fluff up may not have room to tumble. Check carefully every few minutes and if article is still wet or damp and fills
dryer, finish drying on line. Do not, under any circumstances operate dryer for longer times without checking. CAUTION: If large items do not
have room to tumble, the air flow maybe blocked which could result in scorching your valuable items. Many large items, like shag rugs,
cannot be dried in home size dryers. DO NOT tumble dry jackets containing Kapok. (See filter cleaning instructions above. )

Check ticking for holes or weak seams where feathers or filling could escape. Dry no more than one pillow at a time and set dryer for

maximum time. Stop dryer occasionally and shake pillows to redistribute filling for more even drying. Check pillows at end of drying time.

 they are 

 completely dry, return them to dryer and reset for more drying time. Feather pillows dry very slowly and must be dried

completely to prevent mildewing. DO NOT tumble dry pillows containing Kapok.
