Error Code: SQUARE WITH TWO DIAGONAL LINES IN THE LEFT CORNER Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Fabric should be dried in the shade, away from direct sunlight.
How to Fix SQUARE WITH TWO DIAGONAL LINES IN THE LEFT CORNER Error (Step-by-Step)
- Identify the symbol on the clothing’s care tag, which is a square featuring two diagonal lines in the top left corner.
- This is a specific instruction to dry the garment in a shaded area, away from any direct sunlight.
- Direct sun can cause colors to fade and can degrade delicate fabrics over time.
- After washing, prepare to dry the item according to its other care symbols (e.g., line dry or flat dry).
- Choose a drying location that is always shaded, like a covered patio, a laundry room, or on an indoor rack away from a sunny window.
- Place the garment in the chosen shaded spot and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
- Let it air dry completely, protected from the sun’s harsh rays.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
