• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous combustion increases
when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to heat. Heat sources such as your dryer
can warm these items, allowing an oxidation reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this
heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking, or storing these
kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a fire hazard.
• All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be dangerous.
Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their temperature. Never remove these items
from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle.
Never pile or stack these items when they are hot.
