Clothes should be quickly spread out flat to cool so heat can dissipate, not left bunched up, eg in a clothes basket. ■ This dryer has been designed for domestic use only, not for commercial applications, such as massage/beauty clinics where there may be increased lint accumulation or flammable materials in the atmosphere or load. 2
