To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be
observed:
● ltems that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking oil
constitute a fire hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
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.
Dry in the shade
Drip dry

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.
The 'cool down' cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce the
temperature of the items.
They should not be removed from the tumble dryer or piled or
slacked while hot.
ltems that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or
spotted with petrolgasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other
flammable or explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble
dryer.
Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic
environments include acetone, denatured alcohol, petol/gasoline,
kerosene, spot removers(some brands), turpentine, waxes and wax
removers.
● 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 speifically 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. When available a drying rack could be used for
such items.
● Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies' waterproof napkin
covers should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
● Rubber-backed articles, clothes ftted with foam rubber pads,
pllows, galoshes and rubber-coated tennis shoes should not be
placed in a tumble dryer.
