Dry only full loads. Single items and small loads usually take
longer to dry.
Avoid overloading, adding wet items to a partially dry load,
and overdrying.
Dry one load after another to take advantage of a warm dryer.
Opening the door needlessly causes warm air to escape,
which prolongs drying time.
If possible, use the dryer on low humidity days.
Install the dryer in an area where the room temperature is
at least 45°F (7°C).
