HOW TO SORT CLOTHES
Fabric and Drying Selections Sorting Energy-Saving Tips
ENERGY-SAVING TIPS FOR YOUR DRYER
• Sort clothes by weight so you won’t have to
run an extra cycle for one or two heavier, slower-
drying items.
• Do not overload dryer. The drum should be no more
than half full of wet articles. For efficient drying,
clothes need to tumble freely. Overloading prolongs
drying time and produces uneven drying.
• Use Automatic Drying Cycle whenever possible
to help prevent overdrying and to save energy.
• To help prevent ironing, remove garments
immediately at the end of the drying cycle
and place on hangers.
• Dry your clothes in consecutive loads. Using a
“warm” dryer will save energy.
• Clean lint filter each time you dry.
• Clean dryer exhaust ducting at least once a year. A
partially clogged exhaust can lengthen drying time.
