◆ 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.
6. DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.
7. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
10
SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS
Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred from the food to
the dish.The dishes are therefore hot.
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn even after cooking has finished, although
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.
◆ 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

your oven by leaving at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space behind, on the
10 cm of
the side
sides of the 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.
✽ Never block the air vents as the oven may overheat and automatically switch itself off. It will
remain inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.
✽ For your personal safety, plug the cable into a 3-pin, 230 Volt, 50Hz, AC earthed socket. If
the power cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable
(I-SHENG SP022, KDK KKP4819D, EUROELECTRIC 3410, SAMIL SP-106B, MOONSUNG
EP-48E). Contact your local dealer to have it replaced. The power cable of ISRAEL is
PENCON(ZD16A), S/AFRICAAPEX LEADS SA16 and NIGERIA, GHANA, KENYAand
U.A.E is PENCON(UD13A1).
✽ Do not install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings like next to a traditional oven
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 power cable supplied with the
oven. Wipe the interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using your microwave
oven for the first time.
Setting the Time (M1974)

Cookware Guide
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate
the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used.
Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is
marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry.
The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and
how they should be used in a microwave oven.

Can be used in small quantities to protect
areas against overcooking. Arcing can occur if
the foil is too close to the oven wall or if too
much foil is used.
Do not preheat for more than eight minutes.
Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and
bone china are usually suitable, unless decorated with a metal trim.
Some frozen foods are packaged in these dishes.
Can be used to warm food. Overheating may
cause the polystyrene to melt.
May catch fire.
May cause arcing.

For short cooking times and warming. Also to
absorb excess moisture.
May cause arcing.
Particularly if heat-resistant thermoplastic.
Some other plastics may warp or discolour at
high temperatures. Do not use Melamine plastic.
Can be used to retain moisture. Should not
touch the food. Take care when removing the
film as hot steam will escape.
Only if boilable or oven-proof. Should not be
airtight. Prick with a fork, if necessary.

Cooking Guide for fresh vegetables
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3 tbsp.) for every
250 g unless another water quantity is recommended - see table. Cook covered for
the minimum time - see table. Continue cooking to get the result you prefer. Stir once
during and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking.
Cover during a standing time of 3 minutes.
Hint: Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they are cut, the
quicker they will cook.
All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (1000W).

REHEATING
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional ovens
and hobs normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The times in
the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20°C or a chilled
food with a temperature of about +5 to +7°C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry out
before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 1000 W power while others should be reheated using
850W, 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power
level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly
(mince pies, for example).
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again
before serving.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of
liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the
microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass
stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food.
It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken - for
future reference.
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out.
The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is
recommended in the chart..
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the
safety precautions.
REHEATING LIQUIDS
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off
to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir
after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon
or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.
REHEATING BABY FOOD
BABY FOOD: Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after
BABY MILK: Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a
REMARK:
Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent burns.
