Ticking must be strong and seams secure. If in doubt, sew pillow into a case or use a
zippered pillowcase to prevent feathers from coming out. After washing, shake pillow
to fluff feathers. Dry one large or two smaller pillows. Use TIME DRY cycle. Use
LOW or MEDIUM heat setting if it is available on your dryer. Shake and reposition
pillows several times during drying. Pillows must be dry in the center to prevent
mildew. Drying may take two hours or longer. Reset dryer timer if necessary. The odor
of wet feathers is not pleasant. However, the odor will disappear once the pillows dry.
Follow manufacturer's directions.
Do not dry in the dryer.
Choose heat and cycle for fabric. Filling and cover must be completely washable. Old
quilts may be too fragile to machine wash or dry. Quilts filled with cotton may become
lumpy. Quilting should be close together. Remove from dryer slightly damp and stretch
gently to shape. Quilted articles may shrink if overdried.
AUTOMATIC REGULAR or TIME DRY cycle. Dry one large or several small rugs.
For one small rug only, add towels for buffers.
Hot water and heat tend to deteriorate many types of rubber. Some types of rubber-like
materials are flammable under certain conditions. DO NOT DRY FOAM RUBBER
AND RUBBER-LIKE MATERIALS WITH HEAT.
DELICATE or NO HEAT cycle. Follow manufacturer's suggestions. Some of these
rugs are heat sensitive and should be removed from the dryer when damp, or dried with
no heat.
Choose heat for fabric. Close zippers. Dry one couch cover, two chair covers or five or
six pillow covers at one time. Remove from dryer when slightly damp. Press pleats if
necessary and replace on furniture immediately. Stretch fabrics and knits should be
dried completely so they will fit snug when replaced on furniture.
Make sure the filling and covering are washable and can be dryer dried. Cotton filling
may become lumpy. Protect glass eyes by covering with a stocking or tie toy into a
pillowcase. Choose heat for most sensitive fiber. Dry enough clothes in the load for
good tumbling. DO NOT DRY TOYS STUFFED WITH FOAM RUBBER OR
KAPOK IN THE DRYER WITH HEAT.
DELICATE or NO HEAT cycle. Use a drying rack or tumble with at least four old bath
towels.
