• Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.

• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

• 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 signicant amounts of these oils. DV7700K-03170U-01_EN (US).indd 8 2015-12-29 12:08:25Safety information

• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous combustion increases when 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 re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a re 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.

is level side to side and then front to back. If the dryer is not level, adjust the leveling feet (B) at the bottom of the dryer. Then, check if the dryer is level again. A B NOTE

• To set the dryer to the same height as your washer, fully retract (A) the leveling feet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen (B) 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. DV7700K-03170U-01_EN (US).indd 23 2015-12-29 12:08:28Installation Installation English24 STEP 6 Power on (Gas models) Make sure all gas connections, the exhaust line, and all wiring is connected correctly. Then, plug the power cord into a power source and check the dryer’s installation and operation using the nal checklist in Step 7 below. STEP 7 Final Check When installation is complete, conrm that:

• The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.

• The exhaust ductwork is connected and the joints are taped.

• You have used rigid or stiff-walled exible metal duct material, not plastic exible duct.

• The dryer is level and is sitting rmly on the oor.

• The dryer starts, runs, heats, and shuts off properly. For gas models:

• The gas is supplied properly with no leaks. CAUTION 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 conrm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat. Vent blockage test After the dryer is installed, start the Vent Blockage Test to check if the duct system is properly installed. The Vent Blockage Test automatically detects the status of duct and reports any blockage or problems to the user. Proper ducting can reduce drying time and save energy. NOTE The Vent Blockage Test must run at cool state. If the dryer warms up after the installation check, run the Air Fluff cycle for several minutes to reduce its internal temperature. Operation method

1. Make sure the drum is empty and close the door.

(If there are any clothes or other items in the drum, a correct test can not be made.)

2. Press the POWER button to turn the dryer on, then simultaneously press and hold the

Cycle 1 + Wrinkle Prevent buttons for 3 seconds. When entering the Vent Blockage Test, “InS” appears in the display. (If other procedures are started before entering the Vent Blockage Test, the dryer does not enter the Vent Blockage Test.) DV7700K-03170U-01_EN (US).indd 24 2015-12-29 12:08:28Installation English 25

3. The Vent Blockage Test starts immediately after pressing the START/PAUSE button.

During the test, the number indicator makes a circle in 6 steps clockwise. The test takes about 2 minutes. Do not open the door during the test.

4. After 2 minutes, if the test has completed, the result is displayed and a tone is given.

If status of the duct system is normal, “0” appears and a completion sound is given. If the duct system can not exhaust properly, “CLg” appears and an alarm sound is given. In case of any other problem, an information code appears. Check the information codes in this manual.

• To stop or cancel the Vent Blockage Test, press the POWER button to turn off your dryer.

• During the test, if “dc” appears, make sure the door is closed. If “C1” is displayed, make sure the drum has laundry inside.

• The result displays for about 5 minutes and then automatically turns off. You may turn the result directly off by pressing the POWER button. NOTE

• During or after the test, the internal drum is hot. Use caution to prevent burns. The Vent Blockage Test is used to check for problems to the current duct system when the dryer is installed for the rst time.

• If the test result displays “CLg” (the duct system is blocked ), refer to “Ducting requirements” and “Exhaust ducting guide” section of this manual and take proper measures for drying. If the test is suspended, it could result in incorrect results. Follow the proper procedures when testing the dryer.

• Even if the test result is normal (“0”), the duct system could be blocked slightly. Properly install all duct work according to the installation instructions of this manual. Exhaust ducting guide Ducting

1. Make sure the dryer is installed properly so the air exhausts freely.

2. Use 4-inch rigid metal ducts. Tape all joints including the dryer connection.

Never use lint-trapping screws.

3. To facilitate the exhaust, keep the ducts as straight as possible.

Cleaning Clean all old ducts before installing the dryer, and make sure the vent ap opens and closes freely. We recommend that you to clean the exhaust system annually or on a regular basis. DV7700K-03170U-01_EN (US).indd 25 2015-12-29 12:08:28Installation Installation English26 WARNING
