To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be
observed:
•
Items 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.
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
