If your oven is vented to the inside, the charcoal filter should be replaced every 6
to 12 months and more often if necessary. The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned.
To order a new charcoal filter, contact the Parts Department at 1-800-627-4368 or
your Samsung dealer. You can also order online at www.samsungparts.com

(3 middle screws).
4. Slide the vent grille to the left, then pull
it straight out.

Cleaning the grease filter
Your microwave oven has two metal reusable grease filters. The grease filters
should be removed and cleaned at least once a month, or as required.
WARNING
To avoid risk of personal injury or property damage, do not operate the oven hood
without the filters in place.
1. To remove the filter, slide it to the left
(or right) using the tab.
2. Soak the grease filter in hot water and
a mild detergent. Rinse well and shake
to dry. Brushing the filter lightly can
remove embedded dirt.
WARNING
Do not use ammonia or put the grease filter
in the microwave oven. The aluminum will
darken.
3. To return the filter to its position, slide it
into the frame slot on the left (or right),
then push it upwards and to the right (or
left) to lock it.
