Safety

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID

EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE

ENERGY:

(a)Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.

(b)Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

(c)Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the:

1)Door (bent or dented),

2)Hinges and latches (broken or loosened),

3)Door seals and sealing surfaces.

(d)The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

WARNING

Always observe Safety Precautions when using your oven. Never try to repair the oven on your own – there is dangerous voltage inside. If the oven needs to be repaired, call 1-800-SAMSUNG for the name of an authorized service center near you.

Safety

Important Safety Instructions, continued

•Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use near water – for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.

•Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles or spattered oils stuck to the oven walls or floor can cause paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.

•Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

•Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

•Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

•When cleaning door and oven surfaces, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.

•To reduce the risk of fire in the oven:

a.Do not overcook food. Watch appliance carefully if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are inside.

b.Remove wire twist-ties from plastic cooking bags before placing bags in oven.

c.If materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off, disconnect the power cord, or shut off the power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

d.Do not use the oven compartment for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the oven when not in use.

•Do not operate while empty.

•Do not cook without the glass tray in place on the oven floor. Food will not cook properly without the tray.

•Do not defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles. The containers can break.

•Dishes and containers can become hot. Handle with care.

•Carefully remove container coverings, directing steam away from hands and face.

•Remove lids from food before heating. After heating baby food, stir well and test temperature by tasting before serving.

•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 with caution.

•Do not operate any other heating or cooking appliance beneath this appliance.

•Do not mount unit over or near any portion of a heating or cooking appliance.

•Do not mount over a sink.

•Do not store anything directly on top of the appliance when it is in operation.

•Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be used, as they may cause fire or electric shock.

•Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this oven when not in use.

•Do not put this oven near flammable items and/or flammable materials such as drapes, curtains, etc.

•Never leave the oven unattended during operation.

Important Safety Instructions for using the heater features

•Do not touch hot areas of oven, and always use hot pads, holders or gloves when removing hot items from the oven.

•Do not use these features to heat baby food or bottles.

•Do not use these functions for defrosting your food. There is an “Auto Defrost“ especially for this.

•Do not use the warm feature to reheat cold foods. Do not warm food for more than 1 hour.

•Do not use paper, cardboard, plastic or anything containing these substances.

•Do not move oven when it is hot.

•Use caution when disposing of hot grease.

•Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Residue from pads can contact electrical parts increasing risk of electric shock.

•Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in the toaster mode.

•Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.

•Use caution when heater features are in use. Heater functions include Bake, Broil, Top Brown, Warm & Speed Cook.

•Do not let children use this oven unless under the supervision of an adult.

•Failure to use caution, can lead to bodily injury.

SUPERHEATED WATER

•Superheated water may cause serious injury, so read this warning carefully.

•When microwaved water and other liquids reach the boiling point, they don’t always bubble. Therefore, when removing hot liquids from the oven, let stand for 30 seconds before stirring, etc.

•As a general precaution, do not heat small cups for longer than 2 minutes per cup to avoid superheating.

ARCING

•If sparking (arcing) occurs when using microwave power, stop the oven immediately.

•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.

•Make sure metal accessories, such as the wire rack and crumb tray, are in their proper position inside the oven. Do not use these accessories during Microwave-only cooking. These accessories are designed to be used with the Toaster, Bake, Broil, Top Brown, Warm, and Speed Cook functions only.

Safety

IMPORTANT GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding conductor should be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the appliance. Plug the three-prong power cord into a properly grounded outlet of standard 115-120 voltage, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance on this 15A or 20A circuit.

Note: Do not set dishes or food on the door when it is in the open position, as the oven may become unstable and tip over.

WARNING

Improper use of 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. If a long cord or extension cord is used:

1.The marked electrical rating of the 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 or tabletop 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.

4.Use of extremely long extension cords, or cords in poor condition, may adversely affect cooking performance due to voltage drop.

WARNING

Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any circumstances.

Note: Upon the oven’s first use, there may be a slight odor due to heater “break in”. This is normal, and will not reoccur.

Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

1.Do not overheat the liquid.

2.Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

3.Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

4.After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.

5.Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
