• Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similarly
textured rubber like materials should not be dried in a tumble dryer on a
heat setting.
Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous
combustion.
• Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer
to eliminate the effects of static electricity unless this practice is specifically
recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
• Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in
a tumble dryer.
Damage to the tumble dryer can result if metal reinforcements come loose
during drying.
• Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies’ waterproof napkin covers
should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
• Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows,
galoshes and rubber-coated tennis shoes should not be placed in a tumble
dryer.
