~
To prevent the risk of fire, the following must not be tumble dried:
–
items which have been cleaned using chemicals (e.g.
professional dry-cleaning agents).
–
fabrics which contain a large proportion of rubber, foam rubber or
rubber-like materials. For example, products made from latex
foam rubber, shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubberised articles
and items of clothing and pillows with foam rubber filling.
–
damaged items which contain padding or fillings (e.g. pillows,
jackets). When damaged, the filling can get out with the risk of
igniting in the tumble dryer.
~
In many programmes, the heating phase is followed by a cooling
down phase to ensure that the items remain at a temperature which
will not damage them and so that they are not too hot to handle
when you remove them (this also avoids the danger of the laundry
self-igniting). The programme is not finished until the cooling down
phase has been completed.
As soon as the programme has finished, remove all laundry from the
drum.
~
Do not let anyone sit or lean on the door, as this can cause the
tumble dryer to tip up.
~
Always close the doors after use. This way you will avoid the
danger of:
–
children climbing into the tumble dryer or hiding things in it.
–
pets or other small animals climbing into it.
