VINTAGE OWNER'S MANUALS, SERVICE MANUALS, BROCHURES AND PUBLICATIONS
Welcome to Automatic Ephemera, a library for historical research and education, sharing public domain documents relating to vintage products for
the home. You are viewing the low-resolution preview, high-resoultion versions are also available for most documents.
The scanning of all high-resolution documents is done at 300dpi with the utmost diligence and care to produce high quality .pdf files which have text
search capabilities built-in to bring modern convenience to vintage printed materials.
The high resolution also allows for close-up examination of all images on your computer monitor and in many cases makes
reading the text easier than the original document. Quality printers can print these documents nearly identically to the original document. Maintaining a library as such is a
time consuming and expensive venture, all materials have a small download fee to offset the library's many expenses.
In order to read these documents you need Adobe
Reader 7 or greater installed on your computer. Click here for samples of the Documents in our library.

so, she may want to dry clothes completely to eliminate the danger of mildew and then sprinkle them as she irons. This she can do by using "Automatic Sprinkling."
Tips for Successful Drying
In all appliances, there are tips which will help the customer enjoy the product to the fullest. Here are a few for drying clothes:
Drying Timetables
The drying times given in the instruction book should be used only as a guide to estimate times for specific loads. There will be variations depending upon the type of load, the fabric, the number of garments, and the washer in which they were washed. Naturally, all of the times given are based on water extraction in a Frigidaire washer. Clothes spun in other type washers will take longer to dry.
Drying Starched Clothes
Overdrying
Starched clothes may be dried successfully according to the following:
1. Dry starched clothes separately.
2. Start with a cool drum.
3. If desired, use a heavier starch.
4. Starched clothes should be removed damp-dry for ironing. If allowed to dry completely some of the starch-particularly cornstarch-will flake off and thus the garment loses some of its desired stiffness.
Many complaints result directly from overdrying. Remember that all fibers have some natural moisture. To remove this moisture results in wrinkling, shrinkage, harshness and sometimes yellowing.
Clothes should be removed from the dryer while they still feel a trifle moist. On the DI and DCI-59 models, the Automatic Drying cycle will dry clothes to just the right dryness. On other models, the homemaker should use the minimum time given in the timetable.
