Answer 1

add more water to cool down the dryer.

Answer 2

The heat is what shrinks the fabric. Follow the directions on the label. If you find that things still shrink on the low heat setting, use only the fluff air cycle.

Answer 3

cotton Tshirts are big offenders in that the torso part shrinks upwards. Do two things:

Turn the heat setting to as low as you can, or the "air fluff" setting

this will take considerably longer but make a difference

Any particularly valuable or favorite Tshirts should be hung dried on a hanger. the gravity combined with room temperature will allow a much more desired drying.
