Using this Instruction Booklet

You have just purchased a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your Owner’s 
Instructions contain much valuable information on cooking with your 
microwave oven:

Safety precautions

Suitable accessories and cookware

Useful cooking tips

Inside the cover you will find a quick look-up guide explaining four 
basic cooking operations:

Cooking food

Auto Power Defrosting of food

Grilling food

Adding extra cooking time

At the front of the booklet you will find illustrations of the oven, and 
more importantly the control panel, so that you can find the buttons 
more easily.

The step-by-step procedures use three different symbols.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO 
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to 
microwave energy.
(a) Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to operate the oven with 

the door open or to tamper with the safety interlocks (door latches) or to insert 
anything into the safety interlock holes.

(b) Do not place any object between the oven door and front face or allow food or 

cleaner residues to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Ensure that the door and 
door sealing surfaces are kept clean by wiping after use first with a damp cloth 
and then with a soft dry cloth.

(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a 

qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer. It is 
particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no 
damage to the:
(1) Door (bent)
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)
(3) door seals and sealing surfaces 

(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly 

qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

Safety Precautions 

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check 
that the following safety precautions are taken.

Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens; 

DO NOT

 use any metallic containers, Dinnerware with gold or silver 

trimmings, Skewers, forks, etc.
Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags.

Reason:  Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.

When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven 
due to the possibility of ignition;
Do not use your microwave oven to dry papers or clothes.

Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time.
If normal times are allowed they may overheat and burn.

If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door 
closed in order to stifle any flames; 

Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, 
therefore care must be taken when handling the container; To prevent this 
situation 

ALWAYS

 allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been 

switched off so that the temperature can equalize.
Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating.
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:
*

Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.

*

Cover with a clean, dry dressing.

*

Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.

NEVER

 fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at the 

top than at the bottom to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with 
narrow necks may also explode if overheated.

NEVER

 heat a babys bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if 

overheated.

The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred or shaken 
and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns; 

Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in 
microwave ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has 
ended; 
Also do not heat airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers, nuts in 
shells, tomatoes etc.

The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed; 

Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of 
the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly 
result in a hazardous situation; 

DO NOT

 cover the ventilation slots with cloths or paper. They may catch fire 

as hot air is evacuated from the oven.
The oven may overheat and automatically switch itself off. It will remain 
inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.

 

ALWAYS

 use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven to avoid 

unintentional burn.
