Using this Instruction Booklet

GB

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 three basic cooking operations:

Cooking a dish (microwave)

Defrosting a dish

Adding an extra minute, if the dish is inadequately cooked or requires additional reheating

At the end 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 illustrations in the step-by-step procedures use two 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 with first a damp cloth and then a final wipe 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.

Important Note

Safety Precautions

Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check that the following safety precautions are taken.

1.Please don’t mind if the oven works continuously after the cooking is over. Reason: This oven is designed to work without microwaving and grilling for

3 min to cool internal electric parts after the cooking is over.

2.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.

3.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.

4. 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.

5.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.

6.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.

7.DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.

Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn skin even after cooking is finished, oven though they do not appear to be so. Keep away from hot spot. Do not allow inflammable materials to come into contact with any interior area of the oven. Let the oven cool down first.

8.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.

9.

Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.

GB

 

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

 

 

 

been switched off to allow the temperature to equalize.

 

 

• Stir during heating if necessary and ALWAYS stir after heating.

 

 

• To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should stir before,

 

 

during, and after heating.

 

 

• In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions :

 

 

* Immerse hand in cold water for at least 10 minutes.

 

 

* Cover with 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.

 

 

ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk before giving it to

 

 

the baby.

 

 

NEVER heat a baby's bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if

 

 

overheated.

 

 

• During microwave heating of beverages, there are results in delayed

 

 

eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the

 

 

container.

 

10.

Be careful not to damage the power cable.

 

 

• Do not immerse power cable or plug in water and keep power cable away

 

 

from heated surfaces.

 

 

• Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.

 

11.

Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the door.

 

 

Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.

 

12.

Keep the inside of the oven clean.

 

 

• Clean the inside of the oven right after each use with a mild detergent

 

 

solution, but let the microwave oven cool down before cleaning in order to

 

avoid injury.

Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause the damage of painting and reduce the efficiency of the oven.

13.“Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating, especially in defrosting mode.

Reason: When the power output is changing electrically, you may hear that sound. This is normal.

5

Safety Precautions (continued)

GB

14. When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut

off automatically for safety. After standing for over 30 min, you can operate the

 

 

oven normally.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is being heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic paper or other combustible material.

IMPORTANT:

Young children should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the microwave oven. Nor should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it is in use. Items of interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the oven.

How a Microwave Oven Works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy

GB

released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour.

You can use your microwave oven to:

Defrost

Reheat

Cook

Cooking Principle

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)

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

7

Checking that Your Oven is Operating Correctly

 

What to Do if You are in Doubt or Have a Problem

GB

The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is working correctly at all times. If you are in doubt, refer to the section entitled “What to Do if You are in Doubt or Have a Problem” on the next page.

The oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable must be in position in the oven. If a power level other than the maximum (100% - 900 W) is used, the water takes longer to boil.

Open the oven door by pulling the handle on the right side of the door. Place a glass of water on the turntable. Close the door.

1. Press the Start ( 1min+) button and set the time to 4 or

5 minutes, by pressing the ( 1min+) button the approprinte number of times.

Result: The oven heats the water for 4 or 5 minutes. The water should then be boiling.

Becoming familiar with a new appliance always takes a little time. If you have any of the problems listed below, try the solutions given. They may save you the time and inconvenience of an unnecessary service call.

This is normal.

Condensation inside the oven

Air flow around the door and outer casing

Light reflection around the door and outer casing

The food is not cooked at all

Have you set the timer correctly and pressed the Start ( 1min+) 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.

*Solution: Install the oven away from televisions, radios and aerials.

If interference is detected by the oven’s microprocessor, the display may be reset.

*Solution: Disconnect the power plug and reconnect it. Reset the time.

“E3” message indicates

Prevent interior of cooking compartment from fire accident and overheating. When interior of cooking compartment has become overheated, cool it down enough, and make use of it under initialization mode by pushing “ ” key.
