Safety Precautions

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

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

13.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.

14.Do not sit on top of the dryer.

NOTE: 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.

15.Ensure pockets are free from small irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign material, etc. ie. coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.

16.Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid things.

WARNING – 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.

WARNING – 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.

The residual oil can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous combustion increases when the 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.
