Safety information 5

n tnA tion

The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service

personnel.

This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the power cord into a receptacle

that is not grounded adequately and in accordance with local and national codes. See

installation instructions for grounding this appliance.

Do not sit on top of the dryer.

Because of continuing product improvements, Samsung reserves the right to change

specifications without notice. For complete details, see the Installation Instructions

packed with your product before selecting cabinetry, making cutouts, or beginning

installation.

Ensure pockets are free from small irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign material, etc. ie.

....... coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.

Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid things.

Gas leaks may occur in your system, resulting in a dangerous situation.

WARNIN_

Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.

Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.

Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or

cooking oil. Evenafter being washed, these items may contain significant amounts of these

oils.

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.

DUCTING REQUIREMENTS

Use a 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter rigid aluminum or rigid galvanized steel duct.

Do not use a smaller duct.

Ducts larger than 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter can result in increased lint accumulation.

Lint accumulation should be cleaned regularly.

If a flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not use a flexible duct

with a thin foil wall. Serious blockage can result if the flexible metal duct is bent too sharply.

Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings, or other concealed spaces.

Only a rigid or flexible metal duct should be used for exhausting.

Keep the exhaust duct as straight and short as possible.

Secure joints with duct tape. Do not use screws.

DO NOT EXHAUST DRYER INTO ANY WALL, CEILING, CRAWL SPACE, OR CONCEALED SPACE OF

A BUILDING, GAS VENT, OR ANY OTHER COMMON DUCT OR CHIMNEY.

THIS COULD CREATE A FIRE HAZARD FROM LINT EXPELLED BY THE DRYER.

Do not use plastic flexible duct. Plastic flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend

drying times, and affect dryer operation.

Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, affect machine operation, and

may collect lint.

The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a swing-out damper to prevent back drafts and

entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper.

The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of clearance between the bottom of the hood and

the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down.

Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.

To avoid lint buildup, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well. Do not exhaust under a house

or porch.

If exhaust ductwork must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope slightly

down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint buildup.

Inspect and clean the interior of the exhaust system at least once a year. Unplug the power cord before

cleaning.

Check frequently to be sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

Check once per month, and clean at least one time per year. Note: If clothes are not getting dry, then

check ducting for obstructions.

If the new dryer is installed into an existing exhaust system you must make

sure:

• The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.

• That a flexible plastic duct is not used.

• To Inspect and clean all lint buildup from inside the existing duct.

• The duct is not kinked or crushed.

• The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.83 inches of water column, or be

less than 0.

This can be measured with the dryer running with a manometer at the point where the exhaust

duct connects to the dryer. A no-heat setting should be used. The dryer tumbler should be

empty and the lint filter clean.

IMPORTANT TO INSTALLER

Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions should be kept

for future reference.

For proper installation, we recommend that you hire a qualified installer.

Read these instructions completely before you begin the installation.

To install the dryer, follow these steps:

t. Move your dryer to an appropriate location for installation. Consider installing the dryer and washer side-

by-side so you have easy access to both appliances.

To move the dryer easily, lay two of the carton cushion-tops on the floor. Tip your dryer on its side so it

lies across both cushion-tops. Push the dryer so that it is near its final location. Set your dryer upright.

Leave enough room around the dryer so you can attach the duct work, power cord, etc.

If you need to change the direction of the door, go to Door Reversal on page. When done, return to

Step 3 below.

Review the Exhausting section before installing the exhaust system. Install the duct work from your

dryer to the exhaust hood. The crimped end of the duct sections must point away from your dryer. DO

NOT use sheet metal screws when assembling ducting. These joints should be taped. Never use plastic

flexible exhaust material.

A tip for tight installations: Attach a section of the exhaust system to your dryer before putting it in

place. Use duct tape to secure this section to your dryer, but do not cover the ventilation slots at the

back of the dryer cabinet.

If you have an electric model, skip to Step 6. If you have a gas model, go to the next step.

Review the Gas Requirements section, then follow the lettered steps below.

ao Remove the pipe thread protective cap.

b. Apply pipe joint compound or about 1 1/2 wraps of Teflon tape over all threaded connections.

The pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum

any gas.

c. Connect the gas supply to your dryer. An additional fitting is required to connect the 3/4" (1.9 cm)

female thread end of a flexible connector to the 3/8" (1 cm) male threaded end on the dryer.

d. Securely tighten the gas line fitting over the threads.

e. Turn on the gas supply. Check all gas connections for leaks using a soap solution. If bubbles

appear, tighten the connections and recheck. DO NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks.

f. Go to Step 6 on the next page

U.S. MODELS:

A Riskof Electric Shock:

....... All U.S. models are produced for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION. The dryer frame is grounded to the

neutral conductor at the terminal block. A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION is required for new or remodeled

construction, mobile homes, or if local codes do not permit grounding through neutral. Ifthe 4-wire system is

used, the dryer frame cannot be grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block. Refer to the following

instructions for 3- and 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS.

Remove the terminal block cover plate. Insertthe power cord with a UL-listed strain reliefthrough the hole provided in the

cabinet near the terminal block.

A strain reliefmust be used. Do not loosen the nuts already installed on the terminal block. Be sure they are tight. Use a 3/8"

(lcm) deep well socket.

Level

9. Connect the Water Inlet Hose. For instructions, go to Connecting the Inlet Hose

on page

10. Toensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, itmust be level.To

level the dryer, follow the lettered st_Dsbelow:

a. Using a level,check ifthe dryer is level side to side and then front to back.

b. If the dryer is not level,adjust the leveling feet onthe bottom of the dryer until

the washer is levelside to side and back to front. Turning the feet clockwise

retracts the feet. Turning the feet clockwise loosens and extends them.

[_ To set the dryer to the same height as the washer, fully retract the

levelingfeet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the feet

by turning them clockwise. Once the dryer is the same height as the

washer, follow the directions above to levelthe dryer.

Leveling feet

Adjust the leveling feet one/as much as necessary to levelthe dryer Extending the leveling feet more than

necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.

11. Make sure allgas connections (on gas models), exhaust, and electrical connections are complete. Plug in your dryer, and

then check its operation by using the checklist below.

12. For GAS MODELS ONLY

The burner may not ignite initiallydue to air inthe gas line.Allowing your dryer to operate on a heat setting will purge the

line. Ifthe gas does not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your

dryer has been turned on. Toconfirm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

[] The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded proper_/.

[] The exhaust ductwork is hooked up and the joints are taped.

[] You have used rigid or stiff-walled flexible metal duct material, not plastic flexible duct.

[] The dryer is leveland is sitting firmlyon the floor.

[] For gas models: The gas isturned on and there are no gas leaks.

[] Start your dryerto codirm that it runs, heats, and shuts off.

LOAD THE DRYER PROPERLY

Place only one washload in your dryer at a time.

Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight fabrics will dry differently, which may result in lightweight fabrics

being dry while heavy fabrics remain damp at the end of a drying cycle.

Add one or more similar items to your dryer when only one or two articles of clothing need drying.

This improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency.

Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some

fabrics.

GETTING STARTED

1. Load your dryer loosely- DO NOT overload.

2. Close the door.

3. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 24, 26).

4. Press the Start/Pause button.

5. The dryer indicator light will illuminate.

6. The estimated cycle time will appear in the display.

The time may fluctuate to better indicate drying time remaining in the cycle.

through the dryer drum and exhaust system.

completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected

dryness level. This is normal. Select the More Dry setting if desired.

If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight load, such as one towel

with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will net be completely

dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level.

Sort heavy items from lightweight items for best drying results.

Household odors from painting, varnishing, strong cleaners, etc.

may enter the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal as

the dryer draws the air from the room, heats it, pulls it through the

tumbler, and exhausts it outside.

When these odors linger in the air, ventilate the room completely

before using the dryer.
