1. Extra Large Capacity

Ultra drying capabilities are at your ﬁ ngertips! 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 difﬁ cult 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

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

certiﬁ cation 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 efﬁ cient. 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 efﬁ cient way.

7. Easy Reversible Door

Our dryers will ﬁ t just about anywhere and without a door conﬂ ict. 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.

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

speciﬁ cations 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 signiﬁ cant 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 ﬁ re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat

from escaping and can create a ﬁ 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.

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 ﬂ exible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not use a ﬂ exible duct

with a thin foil wall. Serious blockage can result if the ﬂ exible metal duct is bent too sharply.

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

• Only a rigid or ﬂ exible 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 ﬂ exible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airﬂ ow, 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 ﬂ exible 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 while the Dryer is 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 ﬁ lter clean.

IMPORTANT TO INSTALLER

Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions should be kept

for future reference.

REMOVE THE DOOR FROM ALL DISCARDED APPLIANCES TO AVOID THE DANGER OF A CHILD

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 of

120/240 volts, 30-amp 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 retained at the dryer cabinet with 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 4-prong plug for 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-amp fuse or circuit

breaker on both sides of the line is required.

• All Canadian models are shipped with the power cord attached. The power cord should be

plugged into a 30-amp receptacle.

REPLACEMENT PARTS AND ACCESSORIES

If your dryer requires replacement parts or accessories, contact the dealer from whom you purchased your

dryer or the SAMSUNG customer care center at 1-800-SAMSUNG (726-7864).

INSTALLATION

Gather the required tools and parts before starting the installation.

Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.

Tools and Parts

Pliers Cutting knife Pipe wrench (gas only) Nut drivers

Level Phillips Screwdriver Duct tape Wrench

For proper installation, we recommend that you hire a professional. To install:

1. Move your dryer to an appropriate location for installation. Consider installing the dryer and washer side-

by-side, to allow access to gas, electrical, and exhaust connections.

Lay two of the carton cushion-tops on the ﬂ oor. Tip your dryer on its side so it will lay across both

cushion-tops.

2. Set your dryer back in an upright position.

3. To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must

be level. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,the

ﬂ oor must be a perfectly level, solid surface.

To set the dryer to the same height as the washer, fully retract the

leveling feet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the leg

by turning them clockwise

Adjust the leveling feet only as much as necessary to level the dryer.

Extending the leveling feet more than necessary can cause the dryer

to vibrate.

4. Review the Exhausting section before installing the exhaust system. Install the ductwork 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 ﬂ exible exhaust material.

Tip for tight installations: install a section of exhaust system to your dryer before putting it in place.

Use duct tape to secure this section to your dryer, but do not cover ventilation slots at the back of the

unit in the dryer cabinet.

5. Review Electrical Requirements section.

BEFORE OPERATING OR TESTING, follow the grounding instructions in the Grounding section.

U.S. MODELS:

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 Teﬂ on tape over all threaded connections.

Pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of any liqueﬁ ed petroleum gas.

Connect the gas supply to your Dryer.

An additional ﬁ tting is required to connect the 3/4” (1.9 cm) female thread end of a ﬂ exible connector to

the 3/8” (1 cm) male threaded end on the dryer.

Securely tighten the gas line ﬁ tting 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 ﬂ ame to check for gas leaks.

DRYER EXHAUST TIPS

Plastic or non-metal ﬂ exible duct presents a potential ﬁ re hazard.

1. Make sure your dryer is installed properly so it exhausts air

easily.

2. Use a 4” diameter rigid metal duct. Tape all joints, including

at the dryer.

Never use lint-trapping screws.

3. Keep ducts as straight as possible.

4. Clean all old ducts before installing your new dryer.

Be sure the vent ﬂ ap opens and closes freely.

Inspect and clean the exhaust system annually.

Don’t let a poor exhaust system slow drying by:

1. Restricting your dryer with a poor exhaust system.

2. Using a plastic, thin foil, or non-metal ﬂ exible duct.

3. Unnecessarily using long ducts that have many

elbows.

4. Having crushed or clogged ducts and vent.
