1 Safety warnings
7
▪ Do not install the appliance
behind a door that locks, a
sliding door or a door with a
hinge that lies opposite the
hinge of the appliance.
▪ WARNING: The appliance
must not be supplied through
an external switching device,
such as a timer, or connected
to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by a util-
ity.
To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble
dryer, the following should be
observed:
▪ 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 can-
not escape, the items can be-
come 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 con-
taminated by hair care
products be placed in a
tumble dryer they should first
be washed in hot water with
extra detergent – this will re-
duce, but not eliminate, the
hazard.
