INSTALLATION SIDE BY SIDE
For proper installation, we recommend that you hire a professional. To install:
1. Move your dryer to an appropriate location for installation. Consider
installing the dryer and washer side-by-side. 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
levelling feet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the legs
by turning them clockwise
Adjust the levelling feet only as much as necessary to level the dryer. Extending the levelling feet more
than necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.
4. Review Electrical Requirements section (See page 13). BEFORE OPERATING OR TESTING.
5. With a level, check your dryer and make necessary adjustments to the levelling legs.
6. Plug in your dryer, and check operation by using the checklist below.
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
Dryer is plugged into electrical outlet and is properly grounded.
Dryer is leveled and is sitting firmly on the floor.
Start your dryer to confirm that it runs, heats, and shuts o.
Finally, check if the HE error occurs when after running the Time Dry cycle for 20 minutes.

DRAINING WATER WITHOUT USING THE WATER TANK
You can use the dryer without using the water tank by following the procedures below.
Install the drain hose so that water can be drained well.
- Otherwise, the water may overflow and it may cause damage to your property.
CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE
The Dryer can pump the condensed water outside of the DRYER directly
with drain hose provided.
The procedures to connect the drain hose are as follows.
1. Disconnect the drain hose A.
2. Connect the drain hose Ato the other part.
3. Connect accessory hose (long drain hose) Bto the hole
next to the part that is connected to drain hose A.
• Because the dryer’s drain pump can only pump up
the drain water to 90 cm height, when you connect
the drain hose Bto the drain point, make sure that
the height of drain point does not exceed 90 cm.
A drainage error may occur if the drain point exceeds
90 cm. If a drainage error occurs, the control panel
displays an error code.
• After connecting the drain hose, you can directly drain the condensed water via the
drain-outlet through the connected drain hose or through the washstand or the drain-
outlet of the washstand.

Connecting the drain hose
Do not extend the drain hose.
- Since water may leak from a connection, be sure to use one long drain hose instead of
connecting short ones. If you cannot help connecting more than one hose, be sure to seal
the connected parts with silicone sealant. (Do not use electric insulating tape for sealing.)
The end of the drain hose can be positioned in three ways:
1. Over the edge of a wash basin: The drain hose must be placed lower than 90 cm. If the end
of the drain hose needs to be placed above the ground, we recommend a height of 60 cm
~ 90 cm. To keep the drain hose spout bent, use the supplied plastic hose guide. Secure
the guide to the wall with a hook or to the tap with a piece of string to prevent the drain hose
from moving.
2. Assemble the drain hose and the hose guide and fix them with the cable-tie.
3. You can drain the condensed water by connecting the accessory hose (long drain hose) to
the drain-outlet directly.
Connecting the direct-hose
You can immediately drain the condensed water that comes out while drying, by connecting the
drain hose to the tap.
1. Assemble the hose connector and the hose.
Since there is a danger of water leaking from the hose
connecter and accessory hose, make sure that they are
connected firmly.
2. Connect the end of the hose to the tap.
