Temperature Tips
If your dryer has multiple heat settings:
■ A High heat setting may be used for drying heavyweight
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.
■ An Extra-Low heat setting may be used for drying
lightweight items such as lingerie.
■ Use an Air Dry (no heat) setting for foam, rubber, plastic,
or heat-sensitive fabrics.
■ Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for
various loads, refer to the care label directions.
