IMPORTANTGROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. Intheevent of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by

providing an escape wire for the electrical current. This
appliance isequipped with a cord that includes a grounding wire

and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and grounded. Plug the three-prong
power cord into a properly grounded outlet d standard 115-120
voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance on this

circuit.

WARNING

Improper use d the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or
servicer if you do not understand the grounding
instructions or if you are not sure if the appliance is
properly grounded.

Use of Extension Cords

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer

cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if
care is exercised in their use. Ifa long cord or extension cord is

used:

1. The marked electrical rating ofthe cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.

2. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord
and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet.

3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top ortabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over accidentally. If you use an extension
cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower may vary
when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be
longer, too.

Cooking Instructions

Cooking Utensils

Recommended Use

Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes -- Use for heating or

cooking.
Microwave browning dish -- Use to brown the exterior of small

items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions
provided with your browning dish.

Microwavable plastic wrap -- Use to retain steam. Leave a small
opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on

the food.

Wax paper -- Use as a cover to prevent spattering.

Paper towels and napkins -- Use for short-term heating and
covering; they absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do

not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and can
catch fire.

Paper plates and cups -- Use for short-term heating at low

temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal

and can catch fire.
Thermometers -- Use only those labeled "Microwave Safe" and

follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional

thermometers may be used once the food has been removed from
the oven.

Limited Use

Aluminum foil -- Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of
exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be

careful.
Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware -- Use these if they are

labeled "Microwave Safe." If they are not labeled, test them to make
sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metallic trim.

Plastic -- Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe." Other plastics can
melt.

Straw, wicker, and wood -- Use only for short-term heating, as
they can be flammable.

Not Recommended

Glass jars and bottles -- Regular glass is too thin to be used in a
microwave, and can shatter.

Paper bags -- These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that
are designed for microwave use.

Styrofoam plates and cups -- These can melt and leave an
unhealthy residue on food.

Plastic storage and food containers -- Containers such as
margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.

Metal utensils -- These can damage your oven. Remove all metal
before cooking.

Testing Utensils

If you are not sure whether a dish is microwave-safe or not, you can
perform this test:

1 Fill a 1 cup glass measuring cup with water and put it inside your

oven, next to the dish you want to test.

2 Press the One Minute+ button once to heat them for one minute at

High power.

• The water should be warm and the dish you are testing should be cool. If
the dish is warm, then it is absorbing microwave energy and is not

acceptable for use in the microwave.

Cooking Instructions

Cooking Techniques

Stirring

Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute
heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and

heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will

turn off when you open the door to stir your food.

Arrangement

Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with
the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they

receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place thin or
delicate parts toward the center of the turntable.

Shielding

Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking.

Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry

legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of
aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

Turning

Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to
microwave energy. This is especially important with large items such as

roasts.

Standing

Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to
cook for a few minutes after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete
cooking, especially foods such as roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts
need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the
outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken

or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before
serving. When heating baby food, stir well and test the temperature

before serving.

Adding Moisture

Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven
in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the

heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it
cook.

General Tips

Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter
foods. Foods with a delicate texture should be heated at a low power

level to avoid becoming tough.
Altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect cooking

time. When using a new recipe, use the minimum cooking time and
check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking.

Foods with a non-porous skin or shell, such as potatoes, eggs, or hot

dogs, should be pierced to prevent bursting.

• o Frying with heating oil or fat is not recommended. Fat and oil can

suddenly boil over and cause severe burns.
Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example, the jelly

inside a jelly doughnut will be hotter than the dough. Keep this in
mind to avoid burns.

Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because

all harmful bacteria may not be destroyed by the microwave heating
process.
Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat is often

transferred to the cookware. Always use pot holders when removing
food from the microwave and instruct children to do the same.

Guide for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave

Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-boiled eggs in
the shell; they can explode.

Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.

, Guide for Cooking Vegetables in Your

Microwave

Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra
water is needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and

green beans are being cooked, add about 1/4 cup water.
Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook

faster than larger ones.
Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the

cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking.
They will cook more evenly if turned over at half the cooking time.

Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem
ends pointing towards the edge of the dish with the heads toward the

center.
When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or

vented microwavable plastic wrap.
Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant,

etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots before cooking to
prevent them from bursting.

For more even cooking, rearrange whole vegetables halfway through

the cooking time.
Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time.
(Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense, large foods

and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A
baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes before
cooking is completed, while a dish of peas can be served
immediately.

stand for 10-20 minutes.

Notes

Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections
may still be icy; let them stand to continue thawing.

Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges
from cooking before the center of the food has defrosted. Use narrow,
fiat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner

sections of the food.

Troubleshooting Guide

Before you call a repair person for your oven, check this list of possible
problems and solutions.

Neither the oven's display nor the oven operate.

Properly insert the plug into a grounded outlet.

If the outlet is controlled by a wall switch, make sure the wall switch

is turned on.

Remove the plug from the outlet, wait ten seconds, then plug it in

• again.
Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuse.

Plug another appliance into the outlet; if the other appliance doesn't
work, have a qualified electrician repair the outlet.

Plug the oven into a different outlet.

The oven's display works, but the power won't come

on.

Make sure the door is closed securely.
Check to see if packing material or other material is stuck to the door

seal.

,, • Check for door damage.

Press Cancel twice and re-enter all cooking instructions.

The power goes off before the set time has elapsed.

If there has not been a power outage, remove the plug from the

outlet, wait ten seconds, then plug it in again. If there was a power
outage, the time indicator will display "SAMSUNG SO SIMPLE"

Reset the clock and any cooking instructions.
Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuse.

The food is cooking too slowly.

Make sure the oven is on its own 20 amp circuit line. Operating
another appliance on the same circuit can cause a voltage drop. If

• necessary, move the oven to its own circuit.

You see sparks or arcing.

Remove any metallic utensils, cookware, or metal ties. if using foil,

use only narrow strips and allow at least one inch between the foil
and interior oven walls.

The turntable makes noises or sticks.

• Clean the turntable, roller ring and oven floor.

• Make sure the turntable and roller ring are positioned correctly.

Appendix

Using your microwave causes TV or radio interference.

This is similar to the interference caused by other small appliances,
such as hair dryers. Move your microwave further away from other

appliances, like your TV or radio.

Care and Cleaning

Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven.

Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids
can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently. •

Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not
use harsh detergents or abrasives.

To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of
water (add the juice of one lemon if you desire to keep the oven
fresh) in a four-cup measuring glass at High power for five minutes

or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two minutes.

Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray.

To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it

in water immediately after cooking.

Wash the tray carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher.

Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth.

Dry with a soft cloth.

To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, don't let water

seep into the openings.

Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use

a soft cloth to avoid scratching.

If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft

cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity

and in no way indicates microwave leakage.

Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the

magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water
