Remove hooks and weights before washing. Choose heat for fabric and allow
space in the dryer for tumbling. Some draperies may be removed when slightly
damp and hung immediately. Lined draperies should be dry-cleaned because
they have a tendency to pucker.
Knit fabrics are usually manufactured under tension (stretching). Cotton knits
especially may relax or draw together if every bit of moisture is removed from
them. It is best to take them out of the dryer with a trace of moisture remaining,
then stretch to shape. If they do shrink from overdrymg, rewet them and dry
properly.
AUTOMATIC REGULAR
minimize ironing. Reshape,
or TIME DRY cycle. Remove slightly damp to
smooth seams and pockets, etc.
AUTOMATIC REGULAR or AUTOMATIC PERlVlANENT PRESS cycle.
Turn inside out to prevent "pilling" (the rolling up of the fiber ends from
friction). Dry sweaters only with similar things because they tend to attract lint.
Make sure the load is large enough for tumbling. I)r'.¢ completely _md remove
from dryer immediately to minimize wrinkling.

DELICATE or NO HEAT cycle. For wool labeled "raachme washable , follow
manufacturer's directions. For other wool, use wool blanket method. Do not
dryer dry loosely knit wool or hand knits_ Dry these flat and stretch to shape
from a pattern drawn before washing.
AUTOMATIC REGULAR cycle.
Body oils can cause elastic to deteriorate. Wash garments containing elastic
frequently. Elastic in such things as Shorts may be dried as for fabric, but avoid
overdrying.
Bras, bathing suits, sun suits, etc. DO NOT DRY THESE ITEMS IN THE
DRYER WITH HEAT, FIRE MAY RESULT. NO ttEAT setting may be used.
Most girdles (control briefs or shapers) today are made from Spandex. Use
DELICATE or NO HEAT cycles. Do not overdry.
Choose heat for the most delicate fiber. These may be dried completely as they
will stretch into shape. Avoid drying with lint-shedding fabrics.
TIME DRY cycle. Use a DELICATE or LOW HEAT setting, if it is available.
Some sheer fabrics, especially sheer knits, can be heat sensitive. Dry these until
they are just dry (about 10 minutes) and remove from dryer immediately. Sheer
fabrics should not be washed and dried with garments containing '.hooks or
zippers. Man-made fabrics will create static electricity if overdried. To prevent
this, use fabric softener and avoid overdrying.
The materials in mattress pads is made of either cotton or synthetic fibers. Read
the fiber content label, found on your mattress pad, to determine what type of
fiber was used to manufacture the pad. READ AND CAREFULLY FOLLOW
the fabric care instructions supplied by the mattre,;s pad manufacturer. Some
pads made of synthetic fibers are very heat sensitive. These pads can be
flammable if over-heated or over-dried. TO AVOID A FIRE HA2"ARD, DO
NOT OVER-DRY mattress pads. Remove pads from the dryer while they are
still damp.
