VENT SENSOR (DV50F9A8E(G)*)

Your Samsung dryer is equipped with a Vent Sensor, which detects and notifies you when it is time to clean the ductwork. Keep your dryer safe and efficient by cleaning the ducts when prompted.

The Vent Sensor detects any duct blockages

You can fi	gure out whether there is a duct blockage from the “Vent Sensor ” lamp of the
digital display.

In the LEVEL 2 state, this lamp blinks for 3 hours after the completion of the cycle. (If the wrinkle prevention function is activated, this message is displayed for up to 3 hours.)

If the power button is pressed or the door is opened, the power is immediately turned off.

For more information about the duct installation, please refer to the “Ducting requirements” section on page 10.

•Although the dryer is available even if the blockage message is displayed, the drying time may be extended.

•If the LEVEL 1 message is displayed the fi rst time the dryer is run after the installation, check the connection and clean the duct. If the LEVEL 1 message appears even after you have checked and cleaned the ducts, this may indicate that there are some restrictions of the duct due to the length, condition, etc.

If this occurs, you can use the dryer normally and no countermeasures need to be taken. However, the drying time may be extended or the drying performance may be degraded.
