3.3Use

WARNING!

Risk of injury, electrical shock, fire, burns or damage to the appliance.

•Do not dry the damaged items which contain padding or fillings.

•Only dry fabrics which are applicable to dry in the tumble dryer. Follow the instructions on the fabric label.

•If you have washed your laundry with a stain remover start an extra rinse cycle before you start the dryer.

•Do not drink or prepare food with the condensed water/distilled water. It can cause health problems to people and pets.

•Do not sit or stand on the open door.

•Do not dry dripping wet clothes in the 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 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.
