Samsung DVG52M8650V/A3 7.4 cu.ft Top loading washer with Active Wash

The dryer lets you select a cycle from the left-most panel. This cycle panel consists of 3 sections and corresponding section buttons: Cycle 1, Cycle 2, and Cycle 3. Check each section and press the corresponding section button to select a cycle that fits your need.

• Sensor Dry cycles: The dryer senses the internal humidity that will be applied to the drying time. This category includes: NORMAL, HEAVY DUTY, PERM PRESS, BEDDING, DELICATES, and ACTIVE WEAR.

• Steam Dry cycles: The dryer sprays water into the drum to deodorize clothes and reduce static electricity and wrinkles. This category includes REFRESH, WRINKLE AWAY, and STEAM SANITIZE.

• Manual Dry cycles: The drying time is fixed. This category includes: TIME DRY, QUICK DRY and AIR FLUFF.

Displays all cycle information, including the cycle time, information code, and operating status.

• Filter Check

• Child Lock

• Steam

Press Dry Level to select a dry level from the options available. The corresponding indicator turns on.

• Larger or bulkier loads may require Very Dry or More Dry for complete dryness.

• Damp Dry is designed to partially dry items. Use for items that lay flat or hang to dry

Press Temp. to change the temperature of the current cycle.

• High: For sturdy cottons or those labeled Tumble Dry.

• Medium: For permanent press, synthetics, lightweight cottons, or items labeled Tumble Dry Medium.

• Low: For heat sensitive items labeled Tumble Dry Low or Tumble Dry Warm.

• Extra Low: Provides the lowest heated drying temperature possible.

This function is available with NORMAL and TIME DRY. With the Eco Dry activated, drying takes a longer time but the power consumption is reduced.

The drying time can be extended by up to 3 times depending on the temperature and load. The Eco Dry function is enabled by default.

Wrinkle Prevent provides approximately 180 minutes of intermittent tumbling in unheated air at the end of the cycle to reduce wrinkling. Press Wrinkle Prevent to activate this feature.

The load is dry and can be removed at any time during the Wrinkle Prevent cycle

The Mixed Load Bell notifies you when the average dry level in a load is damp dry (80 % dried). This lets you take items that you don’t want fully dried or that dry quickly out of the dryer early while letting others continue to dry.

You can select this option in all Sensor Dry cycles except for AIR FLUFF, ACTIVE WEAR, TIME DRY, QUICK DRY, REFRESH, WRINKLE AWAY, and STEAM SANITIZE. Available dry levels are Normal Dry, More Dry, and Very Dry.

• Make sure the door is latched shut.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged into a live electrical outlet.
• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Press or tap START/PAUSE again if the door was opened during a cycle.
• Clean the lint filter

• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Some cycles do not require heat. Check the selected cycle again.
• For a gas dryer, make sure the gas supply is on.
• Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.
• The dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of the cycle.

• Check all of the above, plus...
• Make sure the exhaust hood outside your home can open and close freely.
• Check the exhaust system for lint buildup. Ducting should be inspected and cleaned annually.
• Use a 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.
• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
• Dry heavy items and light weight items separately.
• Large, bulky items, such as blankets or comforters, may require repositioning to ensure even drying.
• Make sure that your washer is draining properly and extracting adequate water from the load.
• The load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels and restart the dryer.
• The load may be too large to tumble properly. Remove some items and restart the dryer.
• Clean the lint filter.

• Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails, etc. Remove promptly.
• It is normal to hear the dryer gas valve or heating element cycle on and off during the drying cycle.
• Make sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the installation instructions.
• It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air moving through the dryer drum, fan, or exhaust system.

• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level. This is normal. You can choose a higher dryness level or a cycle that involves a higher dryness level.
• If one heavy item is dried with a light weight load, such as one towel with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will not be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level.
• For the best drying results, dry heavy items and light weight items separately.

• Household odors from paint, varnish, strong cleaners, etc. may enter the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal as the dryer draws the air from the room, heats it, pulls it through the tumbler, and exhausts it outside.
• When these odors linger in the air, completely ventilate the room before using the dryer
• Use a cycle featuring the Refresh function. If odors persist, wash and dry the items again.

• Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. For clothes that naturally build up lint, clean the filter during the cycle.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (for example, a fuzzy white cotton towel) and they must be dried separately from clothes that are lint trappers (for example, a pair of black linen pants).
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• Check pockets thoroughly before drying, then dry clothes.
• Remove lint inside the drum before drying a load.

• Small loads of 1 to 4 items work best.
• Load fewer items. Load similar-type items.
• Take out the items immediately after drying is complete.

• This is steam condensation. The dripping water will stop after a short time.

• Sprayed water is difficult to see when the door is closed.

• Sensor Dry automatically senses the moisture in the load and shuts the dryer off when the selected dryness level is reached.

The drying time can change according to the type and amount of laundry. See the cycle chart for reference.
