The final part of a washer dryer
cycle occurs without heat (cool
down cycle) to ensure that the
items are left at a temperature
that ensures that the items will
not be damaged.
After installation, the appliance
must be positioned so that the
plug is accessible.
The appliance must not be
installed behind a lockable
door, a sliding door or a door
with a hinge on the opposite
side to that of the washer dryer,
in such way that a full opening

The appliance is not to be used
if industrial chemicals have
been used for cleaning.

washer dryer.
Fabric softeners, or similar

specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such
as a washer dryer. The items
become warm, causing an
oxidation reaction in the oil,
Oxidation creates heat. If the
heat cannot escape, items can
become hot enough to catch
fire. Piling, stacking or storing
oil-effected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so
create a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics
contain vegetable or cooking oil
or have been contaminated
