PRECAUTIONS TO
AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO
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
front face of the oven and the door or
allow soil or cleaner residue to accu
mulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is dam
aged. 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-SAM-
SUNG for the name of an authorized
service center near you.

Important Grounding
Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electrical current. This appliance is
equipped 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 of standard 115-120 volt-
age, 60 Hz. Your oven should be the only appliance
on this circuit.
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.
WARNING
Do not cut or remove the third (ground)prong
from the power cord under any circum-
stances.
Due to potential safety hazards, we strongly rec-
ommend against the use of an adapter plug.
However, if you still elect to use an adapter, where
local codes may permit, a TEMPORARY CONNEC-
TION may be made to a properly grounded two-
prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL-listed
adapter, which is available at most hardware
stores.
