1. Extra Large Capacity

Ultra drying capabilities are at your ﬁngertips! Now you can dry extra-large loads. Our ultra-

large 7.4 cu.ft. capacity dryer circulates more air through your clothes, drying them faster for

a wrinkle-free result.

2. Steam cycle

This cycle sprays a small amount of water into the dryer drum after several minutes of

tumbling with heat. It reduces bad odors from clothing that are difﬁcult to remove when

washing with water, and also reduces wrinkles.

3. Sanitize course

This course allows you to sanitize garments by permeating high temperature heat deep into

the fabric during the drying cycle. Use this course to keep your bedding and curtains clean.

When selecting this cycle, 99.9% of certain bacteria is eliminated through high temperature

heat. Use this cycle for clothing, bedding, towels, or other items needing sanitized. This

certiﬁcation is conducted by NSF International, an independent third-party testing and

certiﬁcation organization.

4. Various Drying Cycles & Fuzzy Logic Algorithm

Simply turn the Jog Dial to select one of the 11 automatic drying cycles, including normal,

heavy duty and towels, or let the Fuzzy Logic Control measure the degree of dampness and

automatically set the drying time. Precision drying has never been easier than with Samsung.

5. Time Saving

Our cycles are designed with you in mind. All our dryers are designed to dry your clothes in

less time... just 44 minutes! Giving you time for more important things in life.

6. Energy Saving

Samsung dryers are super energy efﬁcient. You can dry up to 3.01 pounds of laundry with

1kWh. Also, both the large capacity and Fuzzy Logic Control save energy by automatically

drying your clothes the most efﬁcient way.

7. Easy Reversible Door

Our dryers will ﬁt just about anywhere and without a door conﬂict. The direction of our easy

reversible door can be changed with just four screws.

8. Pedestal with Storage Drawers

An optional 15” pedestal is available to raise the dryer for easier loading and unloading. It

also offers a built-in storage drawer that can hold a 100 oz. bottle of detergent.

Congratulations on your new Samsung Dryer. This manual contains valuable

information on the installation, use, and care of your appliance. Please take the

time to read this manual to take full advantage of your dryer’s many beneﬁts and

features.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Warnings and Important Safety Instructions in this manual do not cover all possible conditions and

situations that may occur. It is your responsibility to use common sense, caution, and care when installing,

maintaining, or operating your dryer.

Always contact your manufacturer about problems or conditions you do not understand.

IMPORTANT SAFETY SYMBOLS AND PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in severe personal injury or

death.

CAUTION

Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in minor personal injury or

property damage.

CAUTION

Follow the information in this manual to minimize the risk of ﬁre or explosion or

to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death.

Do not store or use gasoline or other ﬂammable vapors and liquids near this or

any other appliance.

Do NOT attempt.

Do NOT disassemble.

Do NOT touch.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not turn on the appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch.

• Do not use any phone in your building.

• Clear the room, building or area of all occupants.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the ﬁre department.

Installation and service must be performed by a qualiﬁed installer, service agency, or the gas

supplier.

Read all instructions before using the appliance.

To reduce the risk of ﬁre or explosion:

• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with

gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other ﬂammable or explosive substances. They

emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a

cleaning solvent or ﬂammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until all

traces of these ﬂammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.

There are many highly ﬂammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured

alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,

turpentine, waxes, and wax removers

• 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 ﬁre by spontaneous combustion.

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.

Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying

compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.

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

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

Do not tamper with controls.

Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the appliance unless speciﬁcally

recommended in the user-repair instructions and you understand and have the skills to

carry those out.

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended for dryer

use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

Clean the lint screen before or after each load.

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

dirt.

The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualiﬁed service

personnel.

SAVE THESE 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.

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.

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.

TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION

Hire a professional to install this dryer properly. If there is a service call performed as a result of poor setup,

adjustment, and connection, it is considered the responsibility of the installer. If you install the dryer you are

responsible.

Make sure you have everything necessary for proper installation.

1. A GROUNDED ELECTRICAL OUTLET is required. See Electrical Requirements.

2. A POWER CORD for electric dryers (except Canada).

3. GAS LINES (if a gas dryer) must meet national and local codes.

4. EXHAUST SYSTEM – must be rigid metal or ﬂexible stiff-walled metal exhaust ducting.

See the exhaust requirements on pages 10-12.

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.

• A 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.
