drying time.

Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, fire, or burns.
Garments that contain unstable dyes,
such as denim blue jeans or brightly

Do not run the dryer with the lint screen
loose, damaged, blocked, or missing.
Doing so can cause overheating and
damage to both the dryer and fabrics.

blends) may shed more lint than other
towels, causing your dryer's lint screen
to fill up faster. Be sure to remove lint
from the lint screen before and after
drying new towels.
