volatile nature and could cause an
explosion. Only tumble dry items

If it is unavoidable that fabrics contain
vegetable or cooking oil or have been
contaminated by hair care products
be placed in washer-dryer, it should
first be washed in hot water with extra
detergent - this will reduce, but not
eliminate the hazard. The “cool down”
cycle of washer-dryer is used to
reduce the temperature of the items.
It should not be removed from the
washer-dryer or piled or stacked
while hot.
The users should always check that
they have not left their gas lighters
(disposable or otherwise) in their
clothing.
Items that have been spotted or
soaked with vegetable or cooking oil
constitute a fire hazard and should
not placed in a washer-dryer.
Oil-affected items can ignite sponta-
neously, especially when exposed to
heat sources such as in washer-dry-
er. The items become warm, causing
an 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.

known as latex foam) or similarly
textured rubber, like materials should
not be dried in a washer-dryer on a

reinforcements come loose during
drying. When available a drying rack

Foam rubber materials can produce
fire by spontaneous combustion when
heated.

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or
spotted with petrol/gasoline, dry-
cleaning solvents or other flammable
or explosive substances should not be
placed in washer-dryer.
