Drying Clothes

1. Sort clothes for drying

Properly dried clothes will need a minimum of care when removed from

the dryer. Clothes properly sorted for washing should be properly sorted

for drying also. Follow the examples below.

SORT

EXAMPLES

Dark and Light
Colors

Separate light clothes from dark clothes.

Lint Shedding
Fabrics

Towels, flannels, chenille, cottons, rugs

Lint Receiving
Fabrics

Corduroys, knits (including socks),
permanent press, and synthetics

Heavy and Light
weight Fabrics

Lightweight fabrics dry faster than heavyweight
fabrics. If mixed loads are dried together (such
as sheets and towels), remove the lighter
weight fabrics when they are dry to prevent
over drying and wrinkling.

2. Clean the lint filter before each use

clean lint filter

 ensures efficient drying and clothes will remain lint-

free when unloading dryer. A layer of lint on the screen will reduce air

flow through the dryer and lengthen drying time. Lint screen may be

washed if needed.

• Lint filter is located at front of the dryer in the lower part of door opening.
• Replace lint filter in door recess and push in firmly. Words on filter

should face front of dryer.

Add clothes loosely

 into dryer drum. Add fabric softener sheet, if

desired. 

Close loading door

. Dryer will not operate with the door open.

3. Select FABRIC SELECTOR setting

Set FABRIC SELECTOR  knob to most appropriate temperature for type

of fabric in load. Follow garment manufacturer’s care label for

recommended temperature settings. See chart below.
