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 overdrying, rewet them and dry properly.
AUTOMATIC REGULAR or TIME DRY cycle. Remove slightly damp to minimize
ironing. Reshape, smooth seams and pockets, etc.
AUTOMATIC REGULAR or AUTOMATIC PERMANENT 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. Dry completely and remove from dryer immediately to
minimize wrinkling.
DELICATE or NO HEAT cycle. For wool labeled "machine 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 HEAT setting may be used.
Most girdles (control briefs or shapers) today are made from Spandex. Use DELICATE
or NO HEAT cycle. 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 are 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 mattress pad manufacturer. Some pads made of synthetic
fibers are very heat sensitive. These pads can be flammable if overheated or overdried.
TO AVOID A FIRE HAZARD, DO NOT OVERDRY mattress pads. Remove pads
from the dryer while they are still damp.
