To reduce the risk of fire generally

Important Safety Instructions

Note:

Pressing the POWER button does NOT disconnect the dryer from the power supply, even though the lights are out.

■When disconnecting a dryer that is plugged in, to avoid damage to the cord or junction of the cord plug, pull by the plug rather than the cord or junction of the cord plug.

■Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded remove the lid and the drum door to the drying compartment.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of fire generally:

■Do not use this dryer in a commercial installation. It has been designed for domestic use only. In commercial applications there may be increased lint accumulation or flammable materials in the atmosphere or load.

■Use this dryer only for its intended purpose as described in this User Guide.

■Only dry materials washed in water or a detergent and water solution. The dryer is intended for this only.

■Do not put in the dryer items that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with flammable liquids or solids e.g. petrol, kerosene, dry cleaning solvents, vegetable or cooking oil, waxes or other flammable or explosive substances.

Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic environments include acetone, denatured alcohol, petrol, kerosene, some brands of spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers.

■Do not use if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.

■Do not dry a total textile load (dry weight) of more than 8 kilograms in this dryer.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire from spontaneous combustion:

■Do not put items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil in the dryer. They are a fire hazard.

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. 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.
