WARNING! The nal cycle of your clothes dryer programs is a cool down cycle to reduce the temperature of your

before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
FIRE HAZARDS
Some fabrics are not suitable for tumble drying. The following MUST NOT be placed in your dryer due to the risk of a
re or an explosion:
• Item(s) that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil, cooking oil, suntan oil, linseed oil, salad oil, lubrication
oil or grease. Oil aected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a
tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing as oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If heat
cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to ignite. Pilling, stacking or storing oil-aected items can prevent
heat from escaping and create a re 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 rst be washed is hot water
with extra detergent - this will reduce, but not eliminate the hazard. The nal part of tumble dryer cycle occurs
without heat (Cooling cycle) to ensure that the items are left at the temperature that ensures that the items will not
be damage.
