Drying Rack (on some models)
Always follow fabric manufacturer’s care label when laundering.
As a general rule, if clothes are sorted properly for the washer, they are sorted properly for the dryer. Try also to
sort items according to size. For example, do not dry a sheet with socks or other small items.
Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm. They may cause fabric softener stains. Bounce
®

gasoline, away from dryer.
• DO NOT dry anything that has ever had anything
flammable on it (even after washing).
• No washer can completely remove oil.
