1.1.2 Product safety
DANGER!
• Superheating of the clothes inside
of the dryer can occur if you cancel
the programme or in the event of
a power failure whilst the dryer is
running, this concentration of heat
can cause self-combustion and fire
so always activate the ventilation
programme to cool down or quickly
remove all laundry from the dryer in
order to hang them up and dissipate
the heat.
Points to be taken into
consideration for fire hazard:
Below specified laundry or items
must not be dried in the dryer
considering fire hazard.
• Unwashed laundry items

Dryer / User Manual
DANGER!
DANGER!
• Items soiled with oil, acetone,
alcohol, fuel oil, kerosene, stain
removers, turpentine, paraffin or
paraffin removers must be washed
in hot water with plenty of detergent
before being dried in the dryer.
For this reason especially the items
containing the above specified
stains must be washed very well,
to do this use adequate detergent
and choose a high washing
temperature.
Below specified laundry or
items must not be dried in the
dryer due to the fire hazard:
• Garments or pillows bolstered with
rubber foam (latex foam), shower
bonnets, water resistant textiles,
materials with rubber reinforcement
and rubber foam pads.
• Clothing cleaned with industrial
chemicals.
Items such as lighter, match,
coins, metal parts, needle etc. may
damage the drum set or may lead
to functional problems. Therefore
check all the laundry that you will
load into your dryer.
Never stop your dryer before the
programme completes. If you must
do this, remove all laundry quickly
and lay them out to dissipate the
heat.
• Clothes that are washed
inadequately may ignite on their
own and even may ignite after
drying ends.
• You must provide enough ventilation
in order to prevent gases exiting
from devices operating with other
types of fuels including the naked
flame from accumulating in the
room due to the back fire effect.
• 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 oilaffected 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.
WARNING!
A
• Underwear that contains metal
reinforcements should not be dried
in the dryer. Dryer may be damaged
if metal reinforcements come loose
and break off during drying.
