MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

The installation of the Dryer in mobile homes must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 {formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD (Part 280), 1975} for the United States) or CSA Standards Z240 (for Canada).

When installing a Dryer in a mobile home, provisions for anchoring the Dryer to the floor must be made. Locate an area that has adequate fresh air.

A minimum of 72 in² (183 cm²) of unobstructed space is required.

Call 1-800-SAMSUNG for information on purchasing the Floor Anchoring Kit as an accessory.

All mobile home installations must be exhausted to the outside with the exhaust duct termination securely fastened to the mobile home structure, using materials that will not support combustion.

The exhaust duct may not terminate underneath the mobile home. See Exhausting section for more information.

EXHAUSTING

Exhausting the Dryer to the outside will prevent large amounts of lint and moisture from being blown into the room.

In the United States:

All dryers must be exhausted to the outside.

Only a rigid or flexible metal duct should be used for exhausting.

In Canada:

All dryers must be exhausted to the outside.

Outside the U.S. and Canada:

Refer to local codes.

The dryer must be exhausted to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when installed in an WARNING alcove or closet.

NEVER USE A PLASTIC OR NON-METAL FLEXIBLE DUCT.

If your existing ductwork is plastic, non-metal, or combustible, replace it with metal.

Use only a metal exhaust duct that is non-flammable to ensure containment of exhaust air, heat, and lint.
