Setting Drying

Times

Modern dryers are designed with

drying temperatures needed to safely

handle modern fabrics. Cooldown

times hove been added to heat set-

trngs. You might notrce slightly longer

dryrng times

The time It takes to dry CIload

depends on

lbe knd of fabric, ifs weight and the

size of the iood A large load of jeans

WIII take a lot longer to dry than a small

load of light synthetics.

0 The amount of moisture in the iood

Towels hold a lot of moisture; synthetics

don’t. Synthetics dry faster

Temperature of the rinse water Cold

rinses cause less wrinkling and help save

energy, but a cold load will take slightly

longer to dry than a warm one.

Amount of iint on the screen A full lint

screen slows the air flow and can make

drying time longer

Room femperoture The dryer heats

room air If the room temperature is not

above 45 F (7 2 C), drying time WIII

be longer and removal of wrrnkles may

be poor. Use a TIMED DRY Control

Proper instaiiation and exhaust sys-

terns For the fastest possrble drying

time, installing and exhausting your

dryer properly ISimportant. See installa-

tion instructions
