safety instructions

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.

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. WARNING coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.

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

Gas leaks may occur in your system, resulting in a dangerous situation.

WARNING

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.

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 significant amounts of these oils.

Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous combustion increases when 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 fire. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can 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.

IMPORTANT – All U.S. models are produced for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION. The Dryer frame is grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block.

A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION is required for new or remodeled construction, mobile homes, or if local codes do not permit grounding through neutral conductor. If the 4-wire system is used, the Dryer frame cannot be grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block. Refer to the following instructions for 3- and 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS.

Remove the terminal block cover plate.

Insert the power cord with a UL-listed strain relief through the hole provided in the cabinet near the terminal block.

A strain relief must be used.

Do not loosen the nuts already installed on the terminal block. Be sure they are tight. Use a 3/8” (1cm) deep well socket.

6.Review Gas Requirements section. Remove the pipe thread protective cap.

Apply pipe joint compound or about 1 1/2 wraps of Teflon tape over all threaded connections. Pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of any liquefied petroleum gas.

Connect the gas supply to your Dryer.

An additional fitting is required to connect the 3/4” (1.9 cm) female thread end of a flexible connector to the 3/8” (1 cm) male threaded end on the dryer.

Securely tighten the gas line fitting over threads.

Turn on the gas supply. Check all gas connections for leaks using a soap solution. If bubbles appear, tighten the connections and recheck.

DO NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks.

operating Instructions, tips

CLEAN THE LINT FILTER

•After each load.

•To shorten drying time.

•To operate more energy efficiently.

Do not operate your dryer without the lint filter in place.

LOAD THE DRYER PROPERLY

•Place only one washload in your dryer at a time.

•Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight fabrics will dry differently, which may result in lightweight fabrics being dry while heavy fabrics remain damp at the end of a drying cycle.

•Add one or more similar items to your dryer when only one or two articles of clothing need drying. This improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency.

•Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some fabrics.

GETTING STARTED

1.Load your dryer loosely – DO NOT overload.

2.Close the door.

3.Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 20, 21).

4.Press the Start/Pause button.

5.The dryer indicator light will illuminate.

6.The estimated cycle time will appear in the display.

The time may fluctuate to better indicate drying time remaining in the cycle.

• When the cycle is complete, “End” will appear in the display.

•Pressing Power cancels the cycle and stops your dryer.

•The Drying, Cooling, and Done indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the cycle.

Do not place anything on top of your dryer while it is running.

care and cleaning

CONTROL PANEL

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

The control panel finish may be damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain remover products. Apply such products away from your Dryer and wipe up any spills or overspray immediately.

TUMBLER

Remove any stains such as crayon, ink, or fabric dye (from new items such as towels or jeans) with an allpurpose cleaner.

Tumble old towels or rags to remove any excess stain or cleaning substance.

Once these steps are followed, stains may still be visible, but should not transfer to subsequent loads.

POWDER COATED TUMBLER

To clean the powder coated tumbler, use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for powder coated surfaces.

Remove the cleaner residue and dry with a clean cloth.

DRYER EXTERIOR

The entire dryer has a high-gloss finish. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. Protect the surface from sharp objects as they may scratch or damage the finish. Do not place any heavy or sharp objects or a detergent box on the dryer. Keep them on the purchased pedestal or in a separate storage box.

troubleshooting

CHECK THESE POINTS IF YOUR DRYER…

PROBLEM	SOLUTION
Doesn’t run.	• Be sure the door is latched shut.
	• Be sure the power cord is plugged into a live electrical outlet.
	• Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.
	• Press the Start/Pause button again if the door is opened during the cycle.
Doesn’t heat.	• Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.
	• Select a heat setting other than Air Fluff.
	• On a gas dryer, check that the gas supply is on.
	• Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.
	• Dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of the cycle.
Doesn’t dry.	• Check all of the above, plus...
	• Be sure the exhaust hood outside the home can open and close freely.
	• Check exhaust system for lint buildup. Ducting should be inspected
	and cleaned annually.
	• Use a 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.
	• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
	• Sort heavy items from lightweight items.
	• Large, bulky items like blankets or comforters may require
	repositioning to ensure even drying.
	• Check that the washer is draining properly to extract adequate water
	from the load.
	• Load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels.
Is noisy.	• Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails, etc.
	Remove promptly.
	• It is normal to hear the dryer gas valve or heating element cycle on
	and off during the drying cycle.
	• Be sure the Dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the installation
	instruction.
	• It is normal for the Dryer to hum from the high velocity of air moving
	through the dryer drum and exhaust system.
Dries unevenly.	• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not be
	completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected
	dryness level. This is normal. Select the More Dry setting if desired.
	• If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight load, such as one towel
	with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will not be completely
	dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level.
	Sort heavy items from lightweight items for best drying results.
Has an odor.	• Household odors from painting, varnishing, strong cleaners, etc.
	may enter the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal as
	the Dryer draws the air from the room, heats it, pulls it through the
	tumbler, and exhausts it outside.
	• When these odors linger in the air, ventilate the room completely
	before using the Dryer.
Shuts off before load is dry	• Dryer load is too small. Add more items or a few towels and restart
	the cycle.
	• Dryer load is too large. Remove some items and restart the dryer.
