towel) and should be dried separately from clothes that are
lint trappers (i.e., a pair of black linen pants).

Excess static in clothes after drying
section below.

clothes.
Excess static
in clothes after
drying

(overdried).
• Drying synthetics, permanent
press, or synthetic blends.
• Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity. Be sure to
follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup of static
electricity. Adjust settings and use a shorter drying time, or
use SENSOR DRY cycles.
• These materials can cause static buildup. Try using a
fabric softener.
