When executing troubleshooting or replacing components,
please note the following safety precautions:
1.1 Safety Precautions
1-1-1. Use Genuine Parts
The components of the machine have safety features such as non-
combustibility and voltage withstanding. Therefore, always use the
same part as suggested by the manufacturer. Ensure sure to use
the components from designated manufacturer especially the key
safety components.
1-1-2. Grounding
Connect the grounding wire to the shell plate, and bury it at least
25cm underground : alternatively, connect the ground wire to the
appropriate pin on a properly grounded power receptacle. Never
connect the wire to a telephone line, lightning rod, or gas pipe.

1.2 Servicing Precautions
1-2-1. Observe Warnings
Be sure to follow special warning and precautions that are
described on part labels and in the owner's manual.
1-2-2. Parts Assembly and Wiring
Be sure to use insulation material (such as tube and tape). And be
sure to restore all parts and wires to their original positions. Take
special care to avoid contacting with sharp edges.
1-2-3. Perform Safety Checks after Servicing
After servicing, check that the screws, parts, and wiring are restored
to their original positions, and check the insulation between the
external metals and the socket plug. In addition, place the tumble
dryer in a level position (less than 1(one) degree) to prevent
vibration and noise during operations.
1-2-4. Insulation Checks
Pull out the plug from the power receptacle, put wet clothes into
the drum, and then set the timer. Check that the resistance
insulation between the terminals of the plug and the externally
exposed metal is greater than 1MΩ .
Note :When it is impossible to perform insulation check with a
500V insulation resistance tester, use other testers for inspection.

may occur.
CHECK
INSULATION
RESISTANCE
• After repair, measure insulation resistance between the
charging part (power cord plug) and the non
-
charging metallic
part (ground) with an insulation resistance meter (500V). The
resistance shall be 10MΩ or more.
Failing to check the insulation resistance may cause a short
circuit, electric shock or other diseases to the customer.
DO NOT MODIFY
• Do not modify the product.
