Final Installation Checklist - Samsung DV395 Series User Manual

installing your dryer
U.S. MODELS:
Risk of Electric Shock:
WARNING
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. 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.
9. Connect the Water Inlet Hose. For instructions, go to Connecting the Inlet Hose
on page
10. To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must be level. To
level the dryer, follow the lettered steps below:
a. Using a level, check if the dryer is level side to side and then front to back.
b. If the dryer is not level, adjust the leveling feet on the bottom of the dryer until
the washer is level side to side and back to front. Turning the feet clockwise
retracts the feet. Turning the feet clockwise loosens and extends them.
To set the dryer to the same height as the washer, fully retract the
leveling feet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the feet
by turning them clockwise. Once the dryer is the same height as the
washer, follow the directions above to level the dryer.
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.
11. Make sure all gas connections (on gas models), exhaust, and electrical connections are complete. Plug in your dryer, and
then check its operation by using the checklist below.
12. For GAS MODELS ONLY
The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to operate on a heat setting will purge the
line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your
dryer has been turned on. To confirm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

 The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.
 The exhaust ductwork is hooked up and the joints are taped.
 You have used rigid or stiff-walled flexible metal duct material, not plastic flexible duct.
 The dryer is level and is sitting firmly on the floor.
 For gas models: The gas is turned on and there are no gas leaks.
 Start your dryer to confirm that it runs, heats, and shuts off.
