A.Nope, your dryer settings are the only thing that should affect drying time. Follow your dryer manufacturer’s instructions if your laundry is drying too slowly.

Q.Will Downy Simple Pleasures stain my fabrics?

A.All fabric softeners do run a small risk of staining. To prevent staining, be sure not to pour undiluted fabric softener directly onto fabrics. Here are some ways to remove fabric  softener stains if they do occur:

•  Nonwashable fibers  — Dampen the stain with water and rub gently with bar soap (avoid deodorant soap) or a liquid laundry detergent like Tide. Rinse thoroughly, and then blot excess liquid and allow to dry.
• Washable fibers  — Again, dampen the stain with water and rub gently with bar soap (avoid deodorant soap) or a liquid laundry detergent like Tide. Rinse thoroughly, and then send fabrics through the wash again.
