Yes, when using a shoe dryer, the shoes need to be aligned and placed correctly. This helps to ensure that shoes can dry evenly and effectively, while avoiding potential damage or unsafe situations. Here are some specific suggestions:
Align the ventilation or heating area: Ensure that the inside of the shoe is aligned with the ventilation or heating area of the shoe dryer, so that hot air or ultraviolet rays can evenly enter the inside of the shoe. This helps to more effectively remove moisture and carry out sterilization treatments.
Stable placement: Ensure that the shoes are firmly placed on the shoe dryer without slipping or tipping over. Especially for higher or heavier boots, ensure that they can be securely fixed to the shoe dryer.
Separate placement: If the shoe dryer is designed to dry multiple pairs of shoes simultaneously, ensure that there is enough space between each pair of shoes to allow air to circulate. This ensures that all shoes can be evenly dried.
Opening shoelaces or zippers: To effectively dry the inside of the shoe, it is recommended to untie or zipper the shoelaces, so that hot air or ultraviolet rays can more easily enter the corners of the shoe.
Check the instruction manual: Each shoe dryer has a slightly different design, and the specific placement method may vary. It is best to consult the user manual of the shoe dryer before use to understand the correct placement method and suggestions.
By correctly aligning and placing shoes, it is possible to ensure that the shoe dryer performs its best, drying shoes evenly and quickly without causing damage to them.
