Electrical warnings
WARNING
• Regularly remove all foreign substances such as dust orwater from the power plug terminals and
contact points using a dry cloth.
• Unplug the power plug and clean it with a dry cloth.
• To avoid risk of electric shock, always unplug the product before disassembly orrepair.
• Do not pull the powercord when unplugging the power plug. To unplug the power plug, firmly pull the
power plug straight out.
• To avoid electric shock, do not use an extension cord.
• Do not use a damaged powercord or powerplug. Do not attempt to repair, disassemble, or modify the
power cord or power plug. For any repairs, contact your nearest Samsung service centre.
• Plug the power cord into a wall socket that meets local electrical specifications. Use the socket for this
appliance only, and do not use an extension cord.
• When moving the product, make sure to keep the power cord protected at all times.
• To avoid electric shock, fire, serious injury, product damage, and/or death, the product must be plugged
into a properly grounded outlet. Make sure the wall outlet and circuit are checked by a qualified
electrician.
• The product must be equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• The product must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
• Before using, make sure there is dedicated, grounded electrical-outlet rated for use with this product. It
is the owner's responsibility to replace a standard 2-prong wall outlet with a standard 3-prong outlet.
• To avoid electric shock, properly ground the product that conforms to all governing codes and
ordinances. Follow the instructions in the user manual.
• The product must be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that
matches the rating plate. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house
wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
• Connect to a properly rated, protected, and sized power circuit to avoid electrical overload. Improper
power circuits can melt, creating electric shock or fire.
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the ground prong from the power cord. To prevent
personal injury or product damage, the electrical power cord must be plugged into a properly grounded
outlet.
• Do not use a multi socket outlet which is not properly grounded (portable). Upon using a properly-
grounded multi socket outlet (portable), use a product with the current capacity of 15 A or higher alone.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock orfire due to the heat of multi socket outlet. The power may
be shut off when the circuit breakeris operated.
• The product must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system or an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-
grounding terminal orlead on the appliance. Electric shock can result if the product is not properly
grounded.

Fabric care guide
• Fabrics have different care management depending on how they were processed and finished. This
fabric care guide does not cover all materials and therefore use it for just a reference. Make sure to
check the care label on your clothing before using with AIRDRESSER to prevent any damage.
• Do not put items that are not colourfast, are heat-sensitive, or are not suitable forwashing with water in
the Clothing Care or Sanitize cycles. Do a water blot test on a small, inconspicuous spot (an inside seam)
to determine if the fabric is colourfast. Forfurther assistance, consult the clothing manufacturer, a dry-
cleaning professional, or a more detailed fabric care guide.
