Installation requirements
NOTE
This dryer must be installed by a qualified installer. If service is required due to poor or faulty installation,
it is considered the owner’s responsibility and may void the warranty. Keep these instructions for future
reference.
WARNING
• Do not plug the power cord into a wall outlet before the dryer is completely installed.
• Have two or more persons help move the dryer.
• Do not let children or pets play in, on, or around the dryer. Proper supervision is necessary at all times.
• Keep all packaging materials away from children.
• Do not replace a damaged power cord or power plug yourself. Have Samsung or a qualified service
technician replace a damaged power cord or power plug.
• Do not attempt to repair, disassemble, or modify the dryer. For any repairs, contact the nearest Samsung
service center.
• Remove the door/lids from all discarded appliances to avoid children from suffocating.
• If the dryer generates a strange noise, burning smells, or smoke, unplug the power plug immediately
and contact the nearest Samsung service center.
• Do not unplug the dryer while it is operating.
• Do not place flammable objects near the dryer.
Electrical and grounding requirements
• The dryer requires an AC 220-240 V / 50 Hz electrical supply.
• The dryer must be properly grounded. If the dryer malfunctions or breaks down, grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. The dryer comes
with a power cord that has a 3-prong grounding plug. 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.

Alcove or closet installation
For alcove or closet installation, the dryer requires the following minimum clearances:
Sides Top Front Rear
25 mm 25 mm 490 mm 50 mm
If installing the dryer with a washing machine, the front of the alcove or closet must have an unobstructed
air opening of at least 550 mm.
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.

STEP 3 Connect the drain hose
• We strongly recommend connecting the drain hose
to your drainage system.
• If the drain hose connected on the dryer is too
short to reach the drainage system, use the
provided accessory hose (long drain hose).
• Use the built-in water tank only if you cannot
connect the drain hose to a drainage system.
NOTE
As a factory default, this dryer is set to use the built-in
water tank to drain condensed water.

Drying guidelines
STEP 1 Sort
• Do not mix heavy and lightweight items together.
• Wash and dry dark-colored items separately from light-colored items.
• Unless recommended on the care label, do not dry woolens or fiberglass items.
• Do not dry items soiled with oil, alcohol, gasoline, etc.
• Avoid drying unwashed items
• Do not dry wet items that have not been fully spin-dried after washing. This could cause an odor inside
the dryer or cause the dryer to malfunction.
• Using a laundry net is recommended for baby socks and other small, light items.
STEP 2 Empty pockets and turn them inside out
• Turn dark-colored clothes inside out before drying them. This will prevent fabric damage due to friction
during the drying process and protect internal parts of the dryer from discoloration and damage.
• Turn the items with buttons or embroideries inside out before drying them.
CAUTION
• Empty the pockets. Metallic objects such as coins, pins, and buckles on clothing may damage other
laundry items as well as the drum.
• Remove any metallic objects attached to items, pull up zippers, and latch hooks before drying. Metallic
objects attached to items may damage other items as well as the drum.
STEP 3 Check the lint filter
Ensure that the lint filter is installed correctly before putting items in the dryer. The dryer does not work
without the lint filter.
• Always clean the lint filter before drying. For more information on filter cleaning, see the “Lint filter”
section on page 44
Untitled-2 26 8/11/2020 3:35:57 PM
English
English 27
STEP 4 Determine the load capacity
Do not overload the dryer. Overloading reduces the tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying and
wrinkling.
• Put one wash load in the dryer at a time.
• To improve drying efficiency for one or two items, add a dry towel to the load.

need to clean the lint filter in the middle of a cycle.
• Some fabrics (such as white towels) causes more lint and should be dried
separately from fabrics that lint attaches easily (such as black linen
pants).
• Check the inside of the pockets to make sure they are empty before
drying.
The ambient temperature
around the dryer rises or
there is a damp, soggy
smell.
• Heat pump dryers circulate ambient air inside and outside the dryer
during the drying process to cool the system. Using the dryer in a poorly
ventilated area may, depending on the operating environment, raise the
ambient humidity level and/or cause a damp, soggy smell to develop.
Ensure proper ventilation when using the dryer.
Water is not draining.
• Check the draining hose for twists and kinks.
Straighten out the hose if it is twisted or kinked and securely connect it
to the drain on the floor.
• Check to see if the draining hose is frozen.
If the hose is frozen, submerge it in warm water to allow the water inside
the hose to melt and drain out. Reconnect the hose and check for proper
draining.
If a problem persists, contact a local Samsung service center.
