• Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.

items such as towels and work clothes.
A Low to Medium heat setting may be used for drying
medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses,
underwear, permanent press fabrics, and some knits.
Use a no heat (Air Dry) setting for foam, rubber, plastic,
or heat-sensitive fabrics.
