Here are some tips that may help you
before you begin tumble drying.
Have the clothes been through a
spin cycle?
Items to be tumble dried should be spun
at 1000 rpm or faster. Higher spin speeds
save both energy and drying time.
Laundry labels
Materials that can be tumble dried
This symbol means that the material
is suitable for tumble drying. Fabrics best
suited to tumble drying are cotton fabrics,
terry cloth, and synthetic bers. Garments
will be softer and lighter when tumbled than
when hung out to dry.
Note!
The tumble dryer does not cause any
signicant wear to fabrics. The lint trapped
in the lint lter consists of dust and ber
residues which gather when the items are
used.
Materials that should not be tumble
dried
This symbol means that the material
is not suitable for tumble drying. Certain
materials may melt or become a re hazard
if exposed to heat and others can lose their
shape or shrink
Do not tumble dry
• Materials labeled “Do not dry near heat”.
