Safety and warnings
WARNING!
Fire Hazard
Only dry fabrics that have been washed with water.
Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured
rubber-like materials. Dry on Airing.
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted outdoors.
Take care to prevent the accumulation of lint around the exhaust opening
and surrounding area.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or personal injury.
Dryer use
The tumble dryer is intended only for drying textile material washed in water.
The dryer should not be used to dry unwashed items.
Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in the dryer. Damage
to the dryer can result if the metal reinforcements come loose during drying. If you wish to dry
these items use a drying rack.
Never dry rubber articles, fibreglass, or any plastic items or film eg. plastic lined tablecloths and
baby bibs.
Clothes should go through the cool down/airing phase of the cycle. If for any reason the dryer is
stopped before the cycle has finished, dry clothes should be removed immediately and not left
in the dryer. Clothes should be spread out to cool and not left bunched up eg. in a
clothes basket.
This dryer has been designed for domestic use only, not for commercial applications, such as
massage/beauty clinics where there may be increased lint accumulation or flammable materials
in the atmosphere or load.
This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless given supervision or
instruction concerning the use of the dryer by a person responsible for their safety.
Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the dryer.
Important!
If you are using an extension cord or a 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.
