Setting Drying
Times -
Modern dryers are designed
with drying temperatures needed to
safely handle modern fabrics.
Cool-
down times have been added to heat
settings. You might notice slightly
longer drying times.
The time it takes to dry a load
depends on:
0 The kind of fabric, its weight, and the
size of the
load.
A large load of jeans
will take a lot longer to dry than a
small load of light synthetics.
0 The amount of moisture in the load.
Towels hold a lot of moisture; synthetics
don’t. Synthetics dry faster.
l
Temperature of the rinse water
Cold
rinses help save on energy and wrin-
kles, but a cold load will take slightly
longer to dry than a warm one.
l Amount
of linf
on the screen.
A full
lint screen slows the air flow and can
make drying time longer.
l
Temperature around the dryer. The
dryer heats room air. If the room air
temperature is not above 45°F (7.2”(Z),
drying time will be longer and removal
of wrinkles may be poor.
0 Proper instollotion and exhaust sys-
tems.
For the fastest possible drying
time, installing and exhausting your
dryer properly is important. See instal-
lation instructions.
