WARNING ??? To reduce the risk of ???re, explosion, electric shock, or personal injury when using your dryer, follow the basic safety precautions below:

1.Read all instructions before using your appliance.

2.To avoid the possibility of ???re or explosion:

a.Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other ???ammable or explosive substances. They emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a cleaning solvent or ???ammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until all traces of these ???ammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.

There are many highly ???ammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.

b.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 ???re by spontaneous combustion.

3.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.

4.Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.

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

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

7.Do not tamper with controls.

8.Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the appliance unless speci???cally recommended in the user-repair instructions and you understand and have the skills to carry those out.

Safety Precautions

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

12.The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by quali???ed service personnel.

13.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.

14.Do not sit on top of the dryer.

NOTE: Because of continuing product improvements, Samsung reserves the right to change speci???cations without notice. For complete details, see the Installation Instructions packed with your product before selecting cabinetry, making cutouts, or beginning installation.

15.Ensure pockets are free from small irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign material, etc. ie. coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.

16.Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid things.

WARNING ??? Gas leaks may occur in your system, resulting in a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.

Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.

Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer???s instructions.

WARNING ??? 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

signi???cant amounts of these oils.

The residual oil can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous combustion increases when the 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 ???re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a ???re 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.

Installation Instructions

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 ???exible metal duct must be used, use the type with a sti??? sheet metal wall. Do not use a ???exible duct with a thin foil wall. Serious blockage can result if the ???exible metal duct is bent too sharply.

???Never install any type of ???exible duct in walls, ceilings, or other concealed spaces.

???Keep 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 ???exible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce air???ow, extend drying times, and a???ect dryer operation.

???Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, a???ect 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.

ELECTRIC AND GAS DRYER

Installation Instructions

If new dryer is installed into an existing exhaust system you must make sure:

???The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.

???That ???exible plastic duct is not used.

???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.
