Product safety

DANGER

  • Superheating of the clothes inside of the dryer can occur if you cancel the programme or in the event of a power failure whilst the dryer is running, this concentration of heat can cause self-combustion and fire so always activate the ventilation programme to cool down or quickly remove all laundry from the dryer in order to hang them up and dissipate the heat.
    Points to be taken into consideration for fire hazard: Below specified laundry or items must not be dried in the dryer considering fire hazard.

  • Unwashed laundry items

  • Items soiled with oil, acetone, alcohol, fuel oil, kerosene, stain removers, turpentine, paraffin or paraffin removers must be washed in hot water with plenty of detergent before being dried in the

For this reason especially the items containing the above specified stains must be washed very well, to do this use adequate detergent and choose a high washing temperature.

Below specified laundry or items must not be dried in the dryer due to the fire hazard:

  • Garments or pillows bolstered with rubber foam (latex foam), shower bonnets, water resistant textiles, materials with rubber reinforcement and rubber foam pads.
  • Clothing cleaned with industrial

Items such as lighter, match, coins, metal parts, needle etc. may damage the drum set or may lead to functional problems. Therefore check all the laundry that you will load into your dryer. Never stop your dryer before the programmed completes. If you must do this, remove all laundry quickly and lay them out to dissipate the heat. Clothes that are washed inadequately may ignite on their own and may even ignite after items in the dryer.

  • You must provide enough ventilation in order to prevent gasses exiting from devices operating with other types of fuels including the naked flame from accumulating in the room due to the back fire
  • 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 Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become 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 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.
  • Use softeners and similar products in accordance with the instructions of their manufacturers.

Always clean the lint filter before or after each loading. Never operate the dryer without the lint filter installed.

WARNING!

Do not perform any repair or replacement procedures on the product even if you know or have the ability to perform the required procedure unless it is clearly suggested in the operating instructions or the published service manual. Otherwise, you will be putting your life and others’ lives in danger. There must not be a lockable, sliding or hinged door that may block the opening of the loading door in the place where your dryer is to be installed.

 Stacking over a washing machine
  •  A fixing device should be used between the two machines when stacking the dryer above a washing machine. Ensure you follow the instructions on the Stacking Kit very carefully.
  • Total weight of the washing machine and the dryer -with full load- when they are placed on top of each other reaches to approx. 180 kilograms. Place the products on a solid floor that has sufficient load carrying capacity!
