outlet box) ensure that it is positioned so that it does not come into contact with
water or moisture.
Lint
Accumulated lint in the dryer can become a fire hazard; it also reduces the efficiency

of the dryer by causing longer drying times and increased power consumption.
Clean the lint filter before every load.
●

Ensure the area around the dryer is clear of lint.
●
●
At regular intervals have the interior of the dryer cleaned of any accumulated lint. This

Spontaneous combustion
IMPORTANT!
To reduce the risk of fire in a tumble dryer the following should be observed:
Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil are a fire
●
●
hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources
●
●
such as a tumble dryer. The items become warm causing an oxidation reaction in the
oil. This oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape the items can become hot
enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat
from escaping creating a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable oil, cooking oil or have been
●
●
contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first be
washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate the fire
hazard. The cool down cycle of the dryer should be used to reduce the temperature of
these items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer and piled or stacked
while hot.
