Laundry GB Sorting your laundry Wash Care Labels Check symbols on clothing labels to make sure that the articles can be tumble dried. ● Sort laundry by fabric type. ● Empty pockets and check buttons. ● Close zippers and hooks and tie loose belts and strings. ● Wring out each item in order to eliminate as much excess water as possible. ! Do not load dripping wet clothes into the dryer. Look at the labels on your garments, especially when tumble drying for the first time.
Laundry Special clothing items Times are approximate and can vary depending upon: Fabrics: items that are the same type of fabric but different textures and thicknesses may not have the same drying time. Starched articles: do not dry these with non-starched items. Make sure that as much of the starch solution is removed from the load as possible before placing it in the dryer. Do not over-dry: the starch will become powdery and leave your clothing limp, which defeats the purpose of starch.
