SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4
IMPORTANT! We do not recommend the use of extension cords or portable electrical outlet devices
for safety reasons. If you are using an extension cord or portable electrical outlet device (eg multi-
socket 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 filters after every load and ensure lint filters are clean and empty before beginning any new
load. Allow for the appliance to cool before cleaning.
• Ensure the area around the dryer is clear of lint.
• At regular intervals have the interior of the dryer cleaned of any accumulated lint.
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.
• Items that have previously been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with flammable liquids or
solids, eg petrol/gasoline, kerosene, dry cleaning solvents, vegetable or cooking oil, acetone, denatured
alcohol, some brands of spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers or other flammable or
explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
• Never dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.
• The dryer is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
• Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of
static electricity, unless this practice is specifically recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener product.
• Rubber backed articles, foam rubber (latex foam), clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads,
fibreglass, shoes containing rubber, shower caps, babies waterproof napkin covers and waterproof
textiles should not be dried in the dryer. These materials can when heated produce fire by spontaneous
combustion.
DISPOSAL
• Extreme care must be taken when disposing of your old appliance to avoid hazards.
DRY CARE SYMBOLS
