How a Microwave Oven Work
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy
released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing
either the form or the colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
•
Defrost
•
Instant Reheat/Cook
•
Cook
Cooking Principle
☛
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking
continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven.
Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must
therefore be respected to ensure:
•
Even cooking of the food right to the centre
•
The same temperature throughout the food
What to Do if You are in Doubt or Have a Problem
If you have any of the problems listed below, try the solutions given.
◆
This is normal.
•
Condensation inside the oven and display
•
Air flow around the door and outer casing
•
Light reflection around the door and outer casing
•
Steam escaping from around the door or vents
◆
The oven does not start when you press the
Start
button.
•
Is the door completely closed?
◆
The food is not cooked at all
•
Have you set the timer correctly and/or pressed the
Start
button?
•
Is the door closed?
•
Have you overloaded the electric circuit and caused a fuse to blow or a
breaker to be triggered?
◆
The food is either overcooked or undercooked
•
Was the appropriate cooking length set for the type of food?
•
Was an appropriate power level chosen?
◆
Sparking and cracking occur inside the oven (arcing)
•
Have you used a dish with metal trimmings?
•
Have you left a fork or other metal utensil inside the oven?
•
Is aluminium foil too close to the inside walls?
◆
The oven causes interference with radios or televisions
•
Slight interference may be observed on televisions or radios when the oven is
operating. This is normal.To solve this problem, install the oven away from
televisions, radios and aerials.
•
If interference is detected by the oven’s microprocessor, the display may be
reset.To solve this problem, disconnect the power plug and reconnect it.
Reset the time.

If the above guidelines do not enable you to solve the problem,
contact your local dealer or SAMSUNG after-sales service.
1.
The microwaves generated by the magnetron are
distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the
turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2.
The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a
depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then
continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.
3.
Cooking times vary according to the recipient used
and the properties of the food:
•
Quantity and density
•
Water content
•
Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
