Safety information
10. The lint trap has to be cleaned frequently, if applicable.
English
11. Lint must not to be allowed to accumulate around the tumble dryer. (not
applicable for appliances intended to be vented to the exterior of the building)
12. Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the back flow of gases into the
room from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires.
13. Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.
14. Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone,
alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.
15. Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles,
rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer.
16. Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric
softener instructions.
17. The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to
ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
18. Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
19. WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless
all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
20. Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

Heat pump model only: The instructions shall also include the substance of the following:
WARNING: In the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
WARNING: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be observed

CAUTION
Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking oil constitute a fire hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer. 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. 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. The ‘cool down’ cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce the temperature of the items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked while hot.
Items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with petrol/gasoline, dry­cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble dryer. Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic environments include acetone, denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, spot removers(some brands), turpentine, waxes and wax removers.
Items containing foam rubber(also known as latex foam) or similarly textured rubber. Like materials should not be dried in a tumble dryer on a heat setting. Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity unless this practice is specifically recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in a tumble dryer. Damage to the tumble dryer can result if metal reinforcements come loose during drying. When available a drying rack could be used for such items.
Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies’ waterproof napkin covers should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber-coated tennis shoes should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer(or washing machine drying mode,etc).
Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, Kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• If you have any questions regarding the electrical or grounding requirements, please contact Samsung or a qualified electrician.
WARNING
• Plug the power cord into a grounded, 3-prong outlet.
• Do not use a damaged power plug, cord, or loose or damaged wall outlet.
• Do not use an adapter or an extension cord.
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor may result in electric shock. If you are unsure if the dryer is properly grounded, check with a qualified electrician.
• Do not modify the power plug, power cord, or power outlet in any way.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

Step-by-step installation

Before you install your dryer, make sure you have read Installation requirements on page 15.
STEP 1 Select a location
Location requirements
Select a level, well-constructed surface that will withstand vibrations. Select a location where a grounded, 3-prong outlet is easily accessible.
For convenience, consider installing the dryer next to your washing machine.
WARNING
• Install the dryer indoors only.
• Do not install the dryer in areas exposed to the weather.
• Do not install the dryer where the temperature may fall below 5 °C or rise above 35 °C.
• Do not install the dryer where gas may leak.
English16
Untitled-1 16 8/25/2020 2:17:36 PM
STEP 2 Adjust the levelling feet
B
A
C D
English
1. Gently slide the dryer into the desired location.
2. Use a level (A) and check the levelness of the dryer
from side to side and front to back.
3. If the dryer is not level, turn the levelling feet (B)
left or right to adjust the height.
4. Once the dryer is level, make sure the dryer stands
firmly on the floor.
5. Plug in the dryer.
NOTE
• To set the dryer to the same height as the washing machine, turn the levelling feet to the right until it fully retracts (C). Then, turn the levelling feet to the left to extend (D) it until the dryer and the washing machine are the same height.
• Extend the levelling leg only as much as necessary. Extending the levelling leg more than necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.
