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

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, door seals and sealing surfaces
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)
(3) Power cable

(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.

1.

DO NOT

 use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:

Metallic containers

Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings

Skewers, forks, etc.

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

2.

DO NOT

 heat:

Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers

Ex) Baby food jars

Airtight food.

Ex) Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes
Reason:  The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.
Tip:

 Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.

3.

DO NOT

 operate the microwave oven when it is empty.

Reason: The oven walls may be damaged.
Tip: 

Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times.
The water will absorb the microwaves if you accidentally set the 
oven going when it is empty.

4.

DO NOT

 cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.

Reason:  The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the 

oven.

5.

ALWAYS

 use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.

Reason:  Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred 

from the food to the dish.The dishes are therefore hot.

6.

DO NOT

 touch heating elements or interior oven walls.

Reason:  These walls may be hot enough to burn even after cooking has 

finished, even though they do not appear to be so. Do not allow 
inflammable materials to come into contact with any interior area of 
the oven. Let the oven cool down first. 

7.

To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

Do not store flammable materials in the oven

Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags

Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers

If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and switch off or 
disconnect the oven from the power supply
