with 3” minimum clearance on the top and bottom. A louvered door with equivalent space clearance is acceptable. 10_ installing your dryer DV220AE-02810B_EN.indd 10 2010-04-13 .AEA 2:51:37 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 in. (465 cm.) of unobstructed space is required. Call 1-800-SAMSUNG(726-7864) 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. • The required exhaust duct is 4inch(102mm) in diameter. • Only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with the appliance by the manufacturer and that comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Duct, Subject 2158A, shall be used. • The duct shall not be assembled with screws or other fastening means that extend into the duct and catch lint. In Canada: • Only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with the appliance by the manufacturer shall be used. • All dryers must be exhausted to the outside. • The exhaust duct should be 4inch (102mm) in diameter. Outside the U.S. and Canada: • Refer to the 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. 01 installing installing your dryer _11 DV220AE-02810B_EN.indd 11 2010-04-13 .AEA 2:51:37 installing your dryer GAS REQUIREMENTS Use only natural or LP (liquid propane) gases. THE INSTALLATION MUST CONFORM WITH LOCAL CODES, OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODES, WITH THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI/Z223.1, LATEST REVISION (FOR THE UNITED STATES), OR WITH THE CAN/CGA-B149 INSTALLATION CODES (FOR CANADA). Gas dryers are equipped with a burner vent for use with natural gas. If you plan to use your dryer with LP (liquid propane) gas, it must be converted for safe and proper performance by a qualified service technician. A 1/2” (1.27 cm) gas supply line is recommended and must be reduced to connect to the 3/8” (1 cm) gas line on your dryer. The National Fuel Gas Code requires that an accessible, approved manual gas shut-off valve be installed within 6’ of your dryer. Gas dryers installed in residential garages must be raised 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor. Additionally, a 1/8” (0.3 cm) N.P.T. (National Pipe Thread) plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of your dryer’s gas supply connection. Your Dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply pipe system during any pressure testing of the system. DO NOT reuse old flexible metal gas lines. Flexible gas lines must be design certified by the American Gas Association (CGA in Canada). • Any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of any liquefied petroleum gas. • As a courtesy, most local gas utilities will inspect a gas appliance installation. GAS IGNITION – Your Dryer uses an automatic ignition system to ignite the burner. There is no constant burning pilot. Commonwealth of Massachusetts installation instructions Your Dryer must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter. A “T” handle manual gas valve must be installed in the gas supply line to your dryer.
