Correct use

~

To prevent the risk of fire, the

following textiles must not be dried in

this tumble dryer:

–

Items which have not been washed.

–

Items, such as workwear, which have

not been thoroughly cleaned and

which are still soiled with grease, oil

or other desposits (such as

cosmetics, lotions etc).

If items have not been thoroughly

cleaned there is a danger that these

might ignite when heated, even after

they have been removed from the

dryer at the end of the programme.

– Items which have been treated with

inflamable cleaning agents or

contain residues of acetone, alcohol,

benzine, petrol, stain remover,

turpentine, wax, wax remover or

other chemicals (e.g. mops and floor

cloths).

– Items which have been splashed

with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail

varnish remover or similar

substances.

When washing such heavily soiled

items ensure that you use sufficient

detergent and select a high

temperature. If in doubt, wash the

items several times.

~

Oil-affected items can ignite

spontaneaously, 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 vegtable 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.
