Safety Precautions

You have just purchased a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your Owner’s Instructions contain much valuable information on cookingwith 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 food

• Defrosting 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.

Important Note Turn

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.

qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there isno 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 Safety Instructions. Read Carefully and keep for future reference. Before cooking food or liquids in yourmicrowave 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.

4. DO NOT cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths orpaper.

5. ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.

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

7. To reduce the risk of fire inthe oven cavity:

: The oven walls may be damaged.

Reason 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.

Reason

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

oven.

: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred

Reason

• 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

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

: These walls may be hot enough to burneven 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.

disconnect the oven from the power supply

Safety Precautions(continued)

8. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.

• ALWAYS allow a standing time of atleast 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.

• Take care when handling the container after heating. You may burn yourself if the container is too hot.

• A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.

• To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you should put a plastic spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating. Reason

: During the heating of liquids the boiling point can be delayed;

this means that eruptive boiling can start after the container is

• 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.

• 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.

9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.

• Do not immerse the power cable orplug in water and keep the power cable away from heated surfaces.

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

removed from the oven. You may scald yourself.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.

11. Keep the inside ofthe oven clean.

12. You may notice a “Clicking”sound during operation(especially when the oven

oven and 20 cm (8 inches) of above.

2. Remove all packing materials inside the oven. Install the roller ring and turntable. Check that the turntable rotates freely.

3. This microwave oven has to be positioned so that plug is accessible.

☛ Never block the air vents as the oven may overheat and

automatically switch itself off. It willremain inoperable untilit has cooled sufficiently.

☛ For your personal safety, plug the cable into a3-pin, 230 Volt,

50Hz, AC earthed socket. Ifthe power cable of this applianceis damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable PENCON(UD13A1).

☛ Do not install the microwaveoven in hot or damp surroundings

like next to a traditionaloven or radiator.The power supply specifications of the oven must be respected and any extension cable used must be of the same standard as the powercable supplied with the oven. Wipe the interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using your microwave oven for the first time.

Your microwave oven has an inbuilt clock. The time can be displayed in either the 24-houror 12-hour notation.You must set the clock:

• When you first install your microwave oven

• After a power failure

✉ Do not forget to reset the clock when you switchto and from

How a Microwave Oven Works

Checking that Your Ovenis OperatingCorrectly

Microwaves are high-frequencyelectromagnetic waves; the energy

released enables food to be cooked or reheated witho utchanging either the form or the colour. You can use your microwave oven to:

• Defrost

• Instant Cook

• Auto Cook/Reheat (M1774N)

•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. Themicrowavesareabsorbedbythefooduptoa 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 foodis 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

The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is working correctly at all times. First, place a bowl of water on the turntable.

Model : M1774N

1. Press the button and set the time to 4-5 minutes by turning the dial knob as required.

2. Press button.

Result:

Theovenheatsthewaterfor4to5minutes. The water should then be boiling.

Model : M1714N

1. Set the power level to maximum by turning COOKING POWER CONTROL knob.

2. Set the time 4 to 5 minutes by turning the TIMER knob.

The water should then be boiling.

☛ The oven must be plugged intoan appropriate wallsocket. The

turntable must be in positionin the oven. If a power level other than the maximum is used, the water takes longer to boil.
