4_ Safety instructions
Read all instructions before using the appliance.
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
• 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.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying
compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
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. You must also have the skills necessary to
service this appliance.
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.

Safety instructions _5
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 dry clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid things.
Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been
contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed
in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such
as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil.
Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to
catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and
so 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.
• 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.
• 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.

LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS
The dryer should be located where there is enough space in 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 left, inquire at the installer. It’s important to make sure the room has enough fresh air. The dryer must be
located where there is no air-flow obstruction.
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,
GASOLINE, AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS. A DRYER PRODUCES COMBUSTIBLE
LINT. THE AREA AROUND THE DRYER SHOULD BE KEPT LINT-FREE.
ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION
The dryer must be exhausted to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when installed in an alcove or
closet.
• No other fuel-burning appliance should be installed in the same closet as the dryer.
• WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED TO THE OUTDOORS.
See EXHAUST INFORMATION section.
• Minimum clearances between the dryer and adjacent walls or other surfaces are:
2” in front, 17” on top, 1” on either side, and 2.375” in the back.
• The closet front must have two unobstructed air openings for a combined minimum total area of 72 in²
with 3” minimum clearance on the top and bottom. A louvered door with equivalent space clearance is
acceptable.
EXHAUSTING
Exhausting the dryer to the outside will prevent large amounts of lint and moisture from being blown into the
room.

POLYESTER KNITS & PERMANENT PRESS DRYING TIPS
• DO NOT OVERLOAD THE DRYER - Garments being dried or dewrinkled should tumble freely.
• REMOVE CLOTHES PROMPTLY - To help prevent wrinkling, remove clothes from the dryer
promptly at the end of the drying cycles.
• PLACE GARMENTS ON HANGERS - Permanent press and polyester knit garments look
best if placed on hangers after drying.
LOADING CLOTHES
• Don’t overload your dryer. Crowded loads don’t dry efficiently and clothes may be unnecessarily wrinkled.
• As a general rule, sort clothes by surface texture, fabric, color and weight, as you would for your washer.
• Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm.
• Do not dry the following items: fiberglass items, woolens, rubber- coated items, plastics,
items with plastic trim and foam-filled items.
• Clothing with metallic components may damage the drum interior while drying.
• The display indicates the remaining drying time by automatically calculating the quantity of
clothing and the content of water. During the first phase of the drying cycle, the display will
indicate the total estimated drying time.
• During the drying cycle, you will again be able to verify the degree of dryness of the clothing and then
increase or decrease the remaining time according to the desired results. (Max. DRY time is 3 hours)
DRYING TIMES
It is impossible to give exact drying times. Conditions from home to home vary and directly affect drying
times. The length of time it takes to dry loads will depend on several things.
• Load Size
• Type of fabric, washer, and spin speed will determine moisture in the fabric.
• Heat and moisture in the room. Damp air coming into the dryer will increase drying time.
• Installation (Length of exhaust duct, etc)
• Electric voltage.
If you select an automatic cycle, the machine will determine the time needed for drying.
During the DRY cycle, the remaining time may be increased or decreased in order to optimize dryness.
