You have just purchased a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your Owner’s Instructions contain much
valuable information on cooking with 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 a dish (microwave)
◆Defrosting a dish
◆Adding an extra minute, if the dish is not cooked or reheated enough
At the end 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 illustrations in the step-by-step procedures use four different symbols.
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 with first a
damp cloth and then a final wipe with a soft dry cloth.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a qualified microwave service technician
trained by the manufacturer.
It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no 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.

Safety Precautions
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check that the following safety
precautions are taken.
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.
DO NOT heat:
◆Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers
Example: Baby food jars
◆Airtight food
Example: Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes
Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.
Tip: Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.
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.
DO NOT cover the side or rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the oven.
ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.
Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred from the food to the dish.
The dishes are therefore hot.
DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to skin burn even after cooking is finished, although they do
not appear to be so. Keep away from hot spot. Do not allow inflammable materials to come
into contact with any interior area of the oven. Let the oven cool down first.
◆To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity.
- 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.

Safety Precautions (continued)
GB
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.
◆ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow
the temperature to equalize.
◆Stir during heating if necessary and ALWAYS stir after heating.
◆To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should stir before, during, and after heating.
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions :
Immerse hand in cold water for at least 10 minutes. Cover with 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.
Be careful not to damage the power cable.
◆Do not immerse power cable or plug in water and keep power cable away from heated surfaces.
◆Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.
Stand at arm's length from the oven when opening the door.
Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is
being heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic paper or other
combustible material.
IMPORTANT:
Young children should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the microwave oven.
Nor should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it is in use.
Items of interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the oven.

How a Microwave Oven Works
10
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
1The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed uniformly as
the food rotates on the glass plate. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2The 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.
3Cooking 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 food is 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

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 “What to Do if You are in Doubt or Have a
Problem” on the next page.
➢◆The oven must be plugged into an appropriate
wall socket.
◆The glass plate 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.
1Open the oven door by pushing the large button in the bottom right-hand
corner of the control panel. Place a glass of water on the glass plate. Close
the door.
2Press the MICROWAVE button and set the time to 4 to 5 minutes, by
pressing the 1 min button the appropriate number of times.
3Press START.
Result: The oven heats the water for 4 to 5 minutes. The water should
then be boiling.
