1.1.2 Product safety
•Superheating of the clothes inside of the dryer can
occur if you cancel the programme or in the event
of a power failure whilst the dryer is running, this
concentration of heat can cause self-combustion

laundry from the dryer in order to hang them up
and dissipate the heat.
Points to be taken into consideration for fire
hazard:
Below specified laundry or items must not be dried
in the dryer considering fire hazard.
•Unwashed laundry items
•Items soiled with oil, acetone, alcohol, fuel oil,
kerosene, stain removers, turpentine, paraffin or
paraffin removers must be washed in hot water

quickly and lay them out to dissipate the heat.
Clothes that are washed inadequately may ignite on
their own and even may ignite after drying ends.
