Drying Special Items

There are some articles that need to be dried in a special way. Before you dry any item that is
not described in SmartLoad’s cycles (page 16), refer to the table below. Always remember to
follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

ITEM

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

Pillows

Check the care label – Can the pillow be dried in the dryer?

Do not dry foam rubber pillows.

It is important that before placing a pillow in the dryer
you check for weak seams where feathers or fillings could
escape.

YOU CAN DRY ONE AVERAGE SIZED PILLOW AT A TIME

Choose the DELICATE cycle and set 20 minutes drying time.

It’s best to place the pillow on a drying rack (refer to page
24) to avoid any chance of the filling escaping, balling or
clumping.

CHECK THE PILLOW AT REGULAR INTERVALS

If you are using a drying rack, you will need to turn the
pillow at regular intervals to ensure even drying.

Note: It is important to completely dry the pillow to prevent
mildew from forming.

Blankets

Check the care label – Can the blanket be dried in the dryer?

Include 4-5 medium sized towels along with the blanket
for cushioning. This will help stop shrinkage from over
tumbling.

If you are drying more than one blanket, ensure they do not
sit higher than the top of the lint bucket, otherwise there
will not be enough space for them to tumble.

Choose the DELICATE cycle and set 20 minutes drying time.

On completion, remove the blanket, shake and, if needed,
stretch the blanket back to its original shape. Place it back in
the dryer and repeat until the blanket is dry.

Note: It is important to completely dry the blanket to
prevent mildew from forming.

Plastic
Foam Rubber
Rubber-Backed Products

Do not dry products containing foam rubber, plastic or
rubber on any cycle other than AIR DRY.

Drying these types of garments on any cycle other than AIR
DRY is a FIRE RISK.
