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.
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 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.
WARNIN_
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. Evenafter being washed, these items may contain significant amounts of these
oils.
Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. 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.

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.
Only a rigid or flexible metal duct should be used for exhausting.
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.
Do not use plastic flexible duct. 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.

If the new dryer is installed into an existing exhaust system you must make
sure:
• The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.
• That a flexible plastic duct is not used.
• To 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. The dryer tumbler should be
empty and the lint filter clean.
IMPORTANT TO INSTALLER
Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions should be kept
for future reference.
A REMOVE THE DOOR FROM ALL DISCARDED APPLIANCES TO AVOID THE DANGER OF A CHILD
....... SUFFOCATING.
LOCATION CONSI DERATIONS
The dryer should be located where there is enough space at the 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 right or the left, use the accessory exhaust kit. Instructions are included with the kit. It's
important to make sure the room has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located where there is no air-flow
obstruction.
On gas dryers, adequate clearance as noted on the data plate must be maintained to ensure adequate air
for combustion and proper dryer operation.
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.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before operating or testing, follow all grounding instructions in the Grounding section.
An individual branch (or separate) circuit serving only your dryer is recommended. DO NOT USE AN
EXTENSION CORD.
Gas models- U.S. and Canada
A 120 volt, 60 Hz AC approved electrical service, with a 15-ampere fuse or circuit breaker is
required.
Electric models- U.S. only
Most U.S. dryers require a 120/240 volt, 60 Hz AC approved electrical service. The electric
service requirements can be found on the data label located behind the door. A 30-ampere fuse
or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
• If a power cord is used, the cord should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
• The power cord is NOT provided with U.S. electric model dryers.
Z_ Risk of Electric Shock:
WARNINe
When local codes allow, the dryer electrical supply may be connected by means of a new power
supply cord kit, marked for use with a dryer, that is U.L. listed and rated at a minimum of120/240
volts, 30-ampere with three No. 10 copper wire conductors terminated with closed loop
terminals, open-end spade lugs with turned up ends, or with tinned leads.
• Do not reuse a power supply cord from an old dryer. The power cord electric supply wiring
must be supported at the dryer cabinet by a suitable UL-listed strain relief.
• Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations,
(2) mobile homes, (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas where local codes prohibit
grounding through the neutral conductor. (Use a 4-prong plug for a 4 wire receptacle, NEMA
type 14-30R.)
Electric models - Canada Only
• A 120/240 volt, 60 Hz AC approved electrical service fused through a 30-ampere fuse or

INSTALLATION - GENERAL PROCEDURE
For proper installation, we recommend that you hire a qualified installer.
Read these instructions completely before you begin the installation.
To install the dryer, follow these steps:
t. Move your dryer to an appropriate location for installation. Consider installing the dryer and washer side-
by-side so you have easy access to both appliances.
To move the dryer easily, lay two of the carton cushion-tops on the floor. Tip your dryer on its side so it
lies across both cushion-tops. Push the dryer so that it is near its final location. Set your dryer upright.
Leave enough room around the dryer so you can attach the duct work, power cord, etc.
2.
If you need to change the direction of the door, go to Door Reversal on page. When done, return to
Step 3 below.
3.
Review the Exhausting section before installing the exhaust system. Install the duct work from your
dryer to the exhaust hood. The crimped end of the duct sections must point away from your dryer. DO
NOT use sheet metal screws when assembling ducting. These joints should be taped. Never use plastic
flexible exhaust material.
A tip for tight installations: Attach a section of the exhaust system to your dryer before putting it in
place. Use duct tape to secure this section to your dryer, but do not cover the ventilation slots at the
back of the dryer cabinet.
4.
If you have an electric model, skip to Step 6. If you have a gas model, go to the next step.
5.
Review the Gas Requirements section, then follow the lettered steps below.
ao Remove the pipe thread protective cap.
b. Apply pipe joint compound or about 1 1/2 wraps of Teflon tape over all threaded connections.
The pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum
c. 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.
d. Securely tighten the gas line fitting over the threads.
e. 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.
f. Go to Step 6 on the next page

U.S. MODELS:
A Risk of ElectricShock:
....... All U.S.models areproduced for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION. The dryer frame is grounded to the
neutral conductor at theterminal block. A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION is required for new or remodeled
construction, mobile homes, or if localcodes do not permit grounding through neutral. Ifthe 4-wire system is
used, the dryer frame cannot be grounded to theneutral conductor at theterminal block. Refer to the following
instructions for 3- and 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS.
Remove the terminal block cover plate. Insertthe power cord with a UL-listed strain reliefthrough thehole provided in the
cabinet near the terminal block.
A strain reliefmust be used. Do not loosen the nuts alreadyinstalled on the terminal block. Be sure they aretight. Use a 3/8"
(lcm) deep well socket.
9. Connect the Water Inlet Hose. For instructions, go to Connecting the Inlet Hose
on page
10. To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must be level.To
level the dryer, follow the lettered st_ Dsbelow:
a. Using a level, check ifthe dryer is level side to side and then front to back.
b. If the dryer is not level,adjust the leveling feet on the bottom of thedryer until
the washer is levelside to side and back to front. Turningthe feet clockwise
retracts the feet.Turning the feet clockwise loosens and extends them.
[_ To set the dryer to the same height as the washer, fullyretract the
levelingfeet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the feet
by turning them clockwise. Once the dryer is the same heightas the
washer, follow the directions above to levelthe dryer.
Leveling feet
Level
Adjust the leveling feet one/as much as necessary to levelthe dryer Extending theleveling feet more than
necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.
11. Make sure all gas connections (on gas models), exhaust, and electrical connections are complete. Plug in your dryer,and
then check its operation by using the checklist below.
12. For GAS MODELS ONLY
The burner may not ignite initiallydue to air inthe gas line. Allowing your dryerto operate on a heat setting will purge the
line. Ifthe gasdoes not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryeroff and wait 5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your
dryer has been turned on. To confirm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat.
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
[] The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded proper_/.
