Safety Information
In the interest of your safety and to ensure the correct use, before installing and first using the appliance, read this user manual carefully, including its hints and warnings. To avoid unnecessary mistakes and accidents, it is important to ensure that all people using the appliance are thoroughly familiar with its operation and safety features. Save these instructions and make sure that they remain with the appliance if it is moved or sold, so that everyone using it through its life will be properly informed on appliance use and safety.
General safety
●It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way.
●This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
●Make sure that small pets do not climb into the drum. To avoid this, please check into the drum before using.
●Any objects such as coins, safety pins, nails, screws, stones or any other hard, sharp material can cause extensive damage and must not be placed into the machine.
●In order to avoid danger of fires caused by excessive drying, do not use appliance to dry the following items: Cushions, quilts and the like (these items accumulate heat).
●Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similary textured rubber like materials, including shower caps, babies waterproof napkin covers, rubber backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis shoes etc. should not be dried in a tumble

drier. Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion
● Always unplug the appliance after use, AUS cleaning and maintenance. 
●Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service Centre. Always insist on genuine spare parts.
●If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised Electrolux service agent.
●To minimise the risk of a fire in the 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. Oilaffected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to a heat source such as is in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat, and if the heat can’t escape, the items become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing of 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.
●If you have washed your laundry with stain remover you must execute an extra rinse cycle before loading your tumble dryer.
●The tumble dryer is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
●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 the tumble dryer.

●The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat ( cool down cycle ) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that items will not be damaged. Items should not be removed from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked while hot before the end of the cool down cycle
●Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
