To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be observed:

Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking oil constitute a fire hazard and sh ould not be placed in a tumble dryer. 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. The ‘cool down’ cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce the temperature of the items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked while hot.

Items that have been previously 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 a tumble dryer. Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic environments include acetone, denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, spot removers(some brands), turpentine, waxes and wax removers.

Items containing foam rubber(also known as latex foam) or similarly textured rubber. Like materials should not be dried in a tumble dryer on a heat setting. Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

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 or product.

Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in a tumble dryer. Damage to the tumble dryer can result if metal reinforcements come loose during drying. When available a drying rack could be used for such items.

Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies’ waterproof napkin covers should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber- coated tennis shoes should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer(or washing machine drying mode,etc).

CAUTION

Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, Kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

Items such as foam rubber(latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer.

Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.

The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat(cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

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 fir hazard.

If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hare 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.

Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly WARNING removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
