General safety
Any modications or repairs must be performed by qualied personnel only. Do not heat food or liquids sealed in containers for the microwave function. Do not use benzene, thinner, alcohol, or steam or high-pressure cleaners to clean the oven. Do not install the oven: near a heater or ammable material; locations that are humid, oily, dusty or exposed to direct sunlight or water; or where gas may leak; or an uneven surface. This oven must be properly grounded in accordance with local and national codes. Regularly use a dry cloth to remove foreign substances from the power plug terminals and contacts. Do not pull, excessively bend, or place heavy objects on the power cord. If there is a gas leak (propane, LP, etc) ventilate immediately. Do not touch the power cord. Do not touch the power cord with wet hands. While the oven is operating, do not turn it off by unplugging the power cord. Do not insert ngers or foreign substances. If foreign substances enter the oven, unplug the power cord and contact a local Samsung service centre.
Do not apply excessive pressure or impact to the oven. Do not place the oven over fragile objects. Ensure the power voltage, frequency, and current matches the product specications. Firmly plug the power plug into the wall socket. Do not use multiple plug adapters, extension cords, or electric transformers. Do not hook the power cord on metal objects. Make sure the cord is between objects or behind the oven. Do not use a damaged power plug, power cord, or loose wall socket. For damaged power plugs or cords, contact a local Samsung service centre. Do not pour or directly spray water onto the oven. Do not place objects on the oven, inside, or on the oven door. Do not spray volatile materials such as insecticide on the oven. Do not store ammable materials in the oven. Because alcohol vapours can contact hot parts of the oven, use caution when heating food or drinks containing alcohol. Children may bump themselves or catch their ngers on the door. When opening/ closing the door, keep children away.
Microwave warning
Microwave heating of beverages may result in delayed eruptive boiling; always use caution when handling the container. Always allow beverages to stand at least 20 seconds before handling. If necessary, stir during heating. Always stir after heating. In the event of scalding, follow these First Aid instructions:
1. Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
2. Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
3. Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.
To avoid damaging the tray or rack, do not put the tray or rack in water shortly after cooking. Do not use the oven for deep fat frying because the oil temperature cannot be controlled. This could result in a sudden boil over of hot oils.

Microwave oven precautions
Only use microwave-safe utensils. Do not use metallic containers, gold or silver trimmed dinnerware, skewers, etc. Remove wire twist ties. Electric arcing may occur. Do not use the oven to dry papers or clothes. Use shorter times for small amounts of food to prevent overheating or burning. Keep the power cord and power plug away from water and heat sources. To avoid the risk of explosion, do not heat eggs with shells or hard-boiled eggs. Do not heat airtight or vacuum-sealed containers, nuts, tomatoes, etc. Do not cover the ventilation slots with cloth or paper. This is a re hazard. The oven may overheat and turn off automatically and will remain off until it cools sufciently. Always use oven mitts when removing a dish. Stir liquids halfway during heating or after heating ends and allow the liquid stand at least 20 seconds after heating to prevent eruptive boiling. Stand at arms length from the oven when opening the door to avoid getting scalded by escaping hot air or steam. Do not operate the oven when it is empty. The oven will automatically shut down for 30 minutes for safety purposes. We recommend placing a glass of water inside the oven at all times to absorb microwave energy in case the oven is started accidentally. Install the oven in compliance with the clearances in this manual. (See Installing your microwave oven.) Use caution when connecting other electrical appliances to sockets near the oven.
Microwave operation precautions
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
• Do not operate the oven with the door open. Do not tamper with the safety interlocks (door latches). Do not insert anything into the safety interlock holes.
• Do not place any object between the oven door and front face or allow food or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Keep the door and door sealing surfaces clean by wiping with a damp cloth and then with a soft, dry cloth after each use.
• Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. Only operate after it has been repaired by a qualied technician. Important: the oven door must close properly. The door must not be bent; the door hinges must not be broken or loose; the door seals and sealing surfaces must not be damaged.
• All adjustments or repairs must be done by a qualied technician.

MaintenanceMaintenance
Cleaning
Clean the oven regularly to prevent impurities from building up on or inside the oven. Also pay special attention to the door, door sealing, and turntable and roller ring (applicable models only). If the door won’t open or close smoothly, rst check if the door seals have built up impurities. Use a soft cloth in soapy water to clean both the inner and outer sides of the oven. Rinse and dry well.
To remove stubborn impurities with bad smells from inside the oven
Maintenance
1. With an empty oven, put a cup of diluted lemon juice on the centre of the
turntable.
2. Heat the oven for 10 minutes at max power.
3. When the cycle is complete, wait until the oven cools down. Then, open the
door and clean the cooking chamber.
To clean inside swing-heater models
To clean the upper area of the cooking chamber, lower the top heating element by 45° as shown. This will help clean the upper area. When done, reposition the top heating element.
CAUTION
• Keep the door and door sealing clean and ensure the door opens and closes smoothly. Otherwise, the oven’s lifecycle may be shortened.
• Take caution not to spill water into the oven vents.
• Do not use any abrasive or chemical substances for cleaning.
• After each use of the oven, use a mild detergent to clean the cooking chamber
after waiting for the oven to cool down.

How a microwave oven works
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
• Reheat
• Cook
Cooking principle.
1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron reected at cavity and 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 container used and the properties of the food:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated or
not)
Checking that your oven is operating correctly
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 “Troubleshooting” on the page 44-47.
NOTE
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 upper side of the door. Place a glass of water on the turntable. Close the door.
Press the Microwave mode and set the time to 4 or 5 minutes by pressing the
START/+30s button. Result: The oven heats the water for 4 or
5 minutes. The water should then be boiling.
IMPORTANT
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 specied 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.

MC32K7058CT_SA_DE68-04387P-01_EN.indd 12 2016-02-17 �� 2:49:11
Setting the time
When power is supplied, “88:88” and then “12:00” is automatically displayed on the display. Please set the current time. The time can be displayed in either the 24-hour or 12­hour notation. You must set the clock:
• When you rst install your microwave oven
