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should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.
Warning:Neverstoptumbledryerbeforethe
end of the drying cycle unless all items are
quickly removed and spread out so that the heat
dissipated.
•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.
