Electrolux EDC78550W User Manual page 3

petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpen-
tine, waxes and wax removers should be
washed in hot water with an extra
amount of detergent before being dried in
the tumble dryer.
• Danger of explosion: Never tumble dry
items that have been in contact with
flammable solvents (petrol, methylated
spirits, dry cleaning fluid and the like). As
these substances are volatile, they could
cause an explosion. Only tumble dry
items washed with water.
• Risk of fire: items that have been spot-
ted or soaked with vegetable or cooking
oil constitute a fire hazard and should not
be placed in the tumble dryer.
• If you have washed your laundry with
stain remover you must execute an extra
rinse cycle before loading your tumble
dryer.
• Please make sure that no gas lighters or
matches have accidentally been left in
pockets of garments incase they are loa-
ded into appliance
Warning!
• Risk of fire! Never stop a tumble
dryer before the end of the drying
cycle unless all items are quickly
removed and spread out so that
the heat is dissipated.
• Lint must not be allowed to accu-
mulate around the tumble dryer.
• Risk of electric shock! Do not spray
down the appliance with jets of water.
• The final part of a tumble dryer cycle oc-
curs without heat ( cool down cycle ) to
ensure that the items are left at a temper-
ature that ensures that items will not be
damaged.
• The tumble dryer is not to be used if in-
dustrial chemicals have been used for
cleaning.
• Ensure you have good ventilation in the
installation room to avoid the back flow of
gases into the room from appliances
burning other fuels, including open fires.
• Oil affected items can ignite spontane-
ously, especially when exposed to heat
sources such as in a tumble dryer. If the
heat cannot escape, the items can be-
come hot enoughto catch fire. Piling,
stacking or storing oil affcted items can
prevent heat from escaping and so cre-
ate a fire hazard.
• If it is unavoidable that fabrics that con-
tain vegetabe or 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 deter-
gent - this will reduce but not eliminate
the hazard.
