Cycle time will increase depending on number of items. Setting the Drying Temperature If your dryer has multiple heat settings: A High or Santize temperature setting may be used for drying heavyweight items such as towels and work clothes. A Low to Medium temperature setting may be used for drying medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses, underwear, permanent press fabrics, and some knits.
