Line Dry Symbol on Towels

This page gives a quick read on the line dry care mark for towels.

Treat the symbol as the limit, not a suggestion. For towels, choose the gentlest setting that still matches the label.
WashUse the strictest label limit.
HeatLower heat is safer when fabric is uncertain.
DryAir dry when the symbol is unclear.

Safe default

Use the label instruction and avoid upgrading to hotter water or higher dryer heat.

Common mistake

Reading one symbol alone. Washing, drying, bleaching, ironing, and dry-cleaning marks work together.

If the label is unclear

  • Use cool water for washable fabric.
  • Air dry instead of tumble drying.
  • Test a hidden area or ask a cleaner for expensive pieces.
