safety instructions

WARNING - Risk of Fire

•

Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.

Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal

(foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by the appliance

manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are

known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct

clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.

•

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:

WARNING

•

Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with

gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They

emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a

cleaning solvent or flammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until all

traces of these flammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.

There are many highly flammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured

alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,

turpentine, waxes, and wax removers

•

Items containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured rubber-

like materials must not be dried on a heat setting. Heated foam rubber materials can,

under certain circumstances, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

_WARNINGWhat to do if you smell gas:

•

Do not try to light any appliance.

Do not turn on the appliance.

Do not touch any electrical switch.

Do not use any phone in your building.

Clear the room, building or area of all occupants.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s

instructions.

•

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or the

gas supplier.

Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front of the appliance. Close supervision is

necessary when the appliance is used near children and pets.

Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying

compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.

Do not reach into the appliance when the drum is moving.

Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

Do not tamper with controls.

Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the appliance unless specifically

recommended in the user-repair instructions and you understand and have the skills to

carry those out.

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended for dryer

use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

Clean the lint screen before or after each load.

Keep the area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from lint, dust, and dirt.

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.

WARNING

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.

Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.

WARNING

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. Even after 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.

Keep the exhaust duct as straight and short as possible.

Secure joints with duct tape. Do not use screws.

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.

•

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.

installing your dryer

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.

Remove the door from all discarded appliances to avoid the danger of a child suffocating.

WARNING

LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS

The dryer should be located where there is enough space at the front for loading the dryer, and enough

space behind for the exhaust system. This dryer is factory-ready for rear exhaust. To exhaust out the

bottom or the right or the left, use the accessory exhaust kit. Instructions are included with the kit. It’s

important to make sure the room has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located where there is no air-flow

obstruction.

On gas dryers, adequate clearance as noted on the data plate must be maintained to ensure adequate air

for combustion and proper dryer operation.

The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. The

dryer area is to be kept clear of combustible materials, casoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. A

dryer produces combustible lint. The area around the dryer should be kept Lint-Free.

REPLACEMENT PARTS AND ACCESSORIES

If your dryer requires replacement parts or accessories, contact the dealer from whom you purchased your

dryer or the SAMSUNG customer care center at 1-800-SAMSUNG (726-7864).

INSTALLATION

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

To install:

1. Move your dryer to an appropriate location for installation. Consider

installing the dryer and washer side-by-side, to allow access to gas,

electrical, and exhaust connections.

Level

Lay two of the carton cushion-tops on the floor. Tip your dryer on its

side so it will lay across both cushion-tops.

2. Set your dryer back in an upright position.

3. To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must

be level. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,the

floor must be a perfectly level, solid surface.

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

leveling feet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the leg

by turning them clockwise

Leveling feet

Retract fully

Then loosen

Adjust the leveling feet only as much as necessary to level the dryer.

Extending the leveling feet more than necessary can cause the dryer

to vibrate.

unit in dryer cabinet.

5. Review Electrical Requirements section.

BEFORE OPERATING OR TESTING, follow the grounding instructions in the Grounding section.

U.S. MODELS:

IMPORTANT – 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. If the 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.

Insert the power cord with a UL-listed strain relief through the hole provided in the cabinet near the

terminal block.

A strain relief must be used.

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.

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 as humidity levels fluctuate in the dryer.

•

When the cycle is complete, the Door Lock light will go out and “End” will appear in the display.

Pressing Power cancels the cycle and stops your dryer.

The Drying, Cooling, and Wrinkle Prevent indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the

cycle.

Do not place anything on top of your dryer while it is running.

Check that the washer is draining properly to extract adequate water

from the load.

•

Load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels.

Is noisy.

Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails, etc.

Remove promptly.

•

It is normal to hear the dryer gas valve or heating element cycle on

and off during the drying cycle.

Be sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the installation

instruction.

It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air moving

through the dryer drum and exhaust system.

Dries unevenly.

Has an odor.

•

Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not be

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

dryness level. This is normal. Select the Very 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 not 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.

PROBLEM

SOLUTION

Shuts off before load is dry

•

Dryer load is too small. Add more items or a few towels and restart

the cycle.

•

Dryer load is too large. Remove some items and restart the dryer.

Lint on clothes

Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. With some loads

that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the

filter during the cycle.

•

Some fabrics are lint producers (for example, a fuzzy white cotton

towel)and they should be dried separately from clothes that are lint

trappers(for example, a pair of lack linen pants)

•

Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying

Check pockets thoroughly before washing and drying clothes.

Garments still wrinkled after

Wrinkle-Care

•

Small loads of 1 to 4 items work best.

Load fewer garments.Load similar-type garments.

Odors remain in clothing

after Refresh.

•

Fabrics containing strong odors should be washed in a normal cycle.

Water drips from nozzle

when Steam-Care starts

This is steam condensation. The dripping water will stop after a short

time.

Sprayed water is not visible

during Steam-Care

Sprayed water is difficult to see when the door is closed
