Load Size Recommendations
For best results, follow the load size recommendations noted  

for each cycle. 

Small load: Fill the dryer drum with 3–4 items, not more 

than 1/4 full. 

Medium load: Fill the dryer drum up to about 1/2 full. 

Large load: Fill the dryer drum up to about 3/4 full.  

Do not pack tightly. Items need to tumble freely.

  On some models, you may select the “With Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes. This is available only with High and Medium 

Drying Temperature settings.

A High heat setting may be used for drying heavyweight items 

such as towels and work clothes.
A Low to Medium heat setting may be used for drying  

medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses,  

underwear, permanent press fabrics, and some knits.
Use a no heat (air only) setting for foam, rubber, plastic,  

or heat-sensitive fabrics.
Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for 

various loads, refer to the care label directions.
