    • 1). Disconnect the power cord from the wall and disconnect the control cord from the blanket. Inspect the blanket to ensure that no wires are exposed. If they are, do not submerge the blanket in water.

    • 2). Set your washing machine for a large load on gentle or delicate and fill it with warm water. Add one-quarter cup of mild laundry detergent to the water.

    • 3). Add the blanket to the water and arrange it so it is distributed as evenly as possible in the washing machine. Close the washer lid and allow the machine to run its cycle for three to four minutes.

    • 4). Drain the washing machine by turning the control of the machine clockwise until it begins to drain or by moving it to the "drain" setting. Allow the machine to go through its rinse cycle and begin the spin cycle.

    • 5). Stop the machine after two to three minutes of spinning. Set the machine back to the rinse cycle again in order to fill the machine with rinse water and remove all of the soap residue.

    • 6). Allow the machine to complete the rinse cycle and two to three minutes of the spin cycle. Stop the machine and while leaving the blanket in the machine, gently lift and squeeze portions of the blanket with your hands to remove any excess water.

    • 7). Place the blanket in the clothes dryer on a low heat setting to dry. Allow the blanket to dry for approximately 10 minutes. Remove the blanket from the dryer while still damp and hang over a shower rod or clothesline to finish drying.
