● Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking oil constitule a fire hazard and
shoul no be placed in a tumble dryer. Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when

reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat can not escape, the item s can become hot
enough to catch fire. Pilling, 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 degergent- this will reduce but not eliminate , the hazard. The « cool
