Dry silks and wools in your dryer only if recommended by the garment manufacturer. Follow instructions carefully.
Tumble drying is mandatory. Down must be thoroughly dried to remove odor and prevent mildewing. Place two large, dry towels in the
dryer to improve tumbling and shorten drying time. Be sure to dry thoroughly.
IMPORTANT. If children’s
is made of
dry only on
(Low). Normal Heat can damage these
fabrics. Check manufacturer’s drying instructions.
See above instructions.
Place in dryer with 3 or 4 dry towels which have been heated for 5 minutes. Set timer for 20 to 25 minutes.
Do not set
control for more than
25 minutes. Do only one blanket at a time. Remove blanket at end of cycle and block blanket back to original shape. Press binding with
warm iron. Allow to dry before storing.
Use dry towels as buffers. Set timer for 20 minutes. If items are still wet, reset for 15 minutes and check again. Items should be removed while
still damp. Place slipcovers on furniture immediately. Hang draperies and curtains so that creases will fall out. Stop dryer periodically and
check filter for excess lint. Remove and restart dryer.
Tumble dry on Fluff (No Heat) setting as heat may cause alteration in shape, color and appearance of such articles.
Stop dryer periodically and check filter for excess lint. Remove and restart dryer.
Special precautions must be taken to dry extra-large items. Set dryer for
minutes
Set 15 minutes for second setting, check
again; and 5 minutes for each additional setting. Make sure that article does not
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 may be 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
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
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.
If they are not 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.
