4 - Read Before Using
- Do not dry unwashed items in the
appliance.
- Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when exposed
to heat sources such as in a tumble
dryer. The items become warm, causing
an oxidation reaction in the oil. 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 and so create a fire hazard.
- If it is unavoidable that fabrics that
contain vegetable 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
detergent - this will reduce, but not
eliminate, the hazard.
- Items that have been soiled with
substances such as cooking oil,
acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene,
spot removers, turpentine, waxes, wax
removers and cosmetic oils must not be
dried in the appliance even after having
been washed.
They may cause a fire.
- Make sure that no objects are left in any
of the pockets. Pay particular attention to
cigarette lighters and matches.
They may cause fire.
- Items such as foam rubber (latex foam),
shower caps, waterproof textiles, airtight
fabrics, rubber backed articles and
clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber
pads should not be dried in the appliance.
Such materials may be destroyed and
thereby damage the appliance.
