Safety Precautions  
You have just purchased a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your Owner’s  
Instructions contain much valuable information on cooking with your  
microwave oven:  
Important Safety Instructions.  
GB  
Read Carefully and keep for future reference.  
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check  
that the following safety precautions are taken.  
Safety precautions  
Suitable accessories and cookware  
Useful cooking tips  
1. DO NOT use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:  
Metallic containers  
Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings  
Skewers, forks, etc.  
At the front 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.  
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.  
2. DO NOT heat:  
Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers  
The step-by-step procedures use three different symbols.  
Ex) Baby food jars  
Airtight food.  
Ex) Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes  
Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.  
Tip: Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.  
Important  
Note  
Caution  
3. 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.  
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 first with a damp cloth  
and then with a soft dry cloth.  
4. DO NOT cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.  
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the  
oven.  
5. 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.  
6. DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.  
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn even after cooking has  
finished, even though they do not appear to be so. Do not allow  
inflammable materials to come into contact with any interior area of  
the oven. Let the oven cool down first.  
(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:  
7. 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  
(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.  
8. 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 so that the temperature can equalize.  
Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating.  
Take care when handling the container after heating. You may burn  
yourself if the container is too hot.

Safety Precautions (continued)  
Installing Your Microwave oven  
Place the oven on a flat, level surface that strong enough to safely bear  
the weight of the oven.  
A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.  
GB  
To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you should put a plastic  
spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after  
heating.  
Reason: During the heating of liquids the boiling point can be delayed;  
this means that eruptive boiling can start after the container is  
removed from the oven. You may scald yourself.  
20 cm  
above  
10 cm  
1. When you install your oven, make sure there is adequate  
ventilation for your oven by leaving at least 10 cm (4  
inches) of space behind and, on the sides of the oven  
and 20 cm (8 inches) of space above and 85 cm(33  
inches) of the floor.  
behind  
85cm of  
the floor  
10 cm of  
the side  
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:  
*
*
*
Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.  
Cover with a clean, dry dressing.  
Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.  
2. Remove all packing materials inside the oven.  
Install the roller ring and turntable.  
Check that the turntable rotates freely.  
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.  
3. This microwave oven has to be positioned so that plug is  
accessible.  
NEVER heat a baby’s bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if  
overheated.  
Never block the air vents as the oven may overheat and  
automatically switch itself off. It will remain inoperable until it has  
cooled sufficiently.  
9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.  
Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and keep the power  
cable away from heated surfaces.  
Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.  
For your personal safety, plug the cable into a 3-pin, 230 Volt,  
50Hz, AC earthed socket. If the power cable of this appliance is  
damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable (I-SHENG  
SP022, KDK KKP4819D, EUROELECTRIC 3410, SAMIL SP-  
106B, MOONSUNG EP-48E, HIGH PROJECT H.P 3). Contact  
your local dealer to have it replaced. The power cable of ISRAEL  
is PENCON(ZD16A), S/AFRICA APEX LEADS SA16 and  
NIGERIA, GHANA, KENYA and U.A.E is PENCON(UD13A1).  
10. Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the door.  
Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.  
11. Keep the inside of the oven clean.  
Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can  
cause paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.  
12. You may notice a “Clicking” sound during operation(especially when the oven  
is in defrosting).  
Reason: This sound is normal when the electrical power output is changing.  
13. When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut  
off automatically for safety. You can operate normally after letting it stand for  
over 30 minutes.  
Do not install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings  
like next to a traditional oven or radiator. The power supply  
specifications of the oven must be respected and any extension  
cable used must be of the same standard as the power cable  
supplied with the oven. Wipe the interior and the door seal with a  
damp cloth before using your microwave oven for the first time.  
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 materials.  
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.

Choosing the Accessories  
Combining Microwaves and the Grill  
Use microwave-safe recipients; do not use plastic containers, dishes,  
paper cups, towels, etc.  
You can also combine microwave cooking with the grill, to cook  
quickly and brown at the same time.  
GB  
ALWAYS use microwave-safe and oven-proof cookware. Glass or  
ceramic dishes are ideal as they allow the microwaves to  
penetrate the food evenly.  
If you wish to select the combined cooking mode (grill and  
microwave), use only dishes that are microwave-safe and  
oven-proof. Metallic cookware or utensils may damage  
your oven.  
ALWAYS use oven gloves when touching the recipients in the  
oven, as they will be very hot.  
For further details on suitable cookware and utensils, refer to the  
Cookware Guide on page 8 .  
1. Open the oven door by pushing the large button in the  
bottom right-hand corner of the control panel. Place the  
food on the rack and the rack on the turntable. Close the  
door.

The grill enables you to heat and brown food quickly, without using  
microwaves. To this aim, a grill rack is supplied with your microwave  
oven.  
3. Turn the TIMER knob to select the appropriate time.  
1. Preheat the grill to the required temperature, by turning the  
(Example : 60 minutes)  
cooking power control knob to grill symbol( ) and  
turning the TIMER knob to the appropriate.  
Result :  
Cooking start.  
2. Open the door and place the food on the rack.  
The maximum microwave power for the combined microwave and  
grill mode is 600W.  
3. Select the appropriate cooking time by the turning the  
TIMER knob.  
(Example : 60 minutes)  
Result :

MICROWAVES  
GB  
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Cook covered for the minimum time - see  
table. Continue cooking to get the result you prefer.  
Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water,  
fat and sugar content.  
Stir twice during cooking and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after  
cooking. Cover during standing time.  
The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid  
movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the  
food.

Cookware for microwave cooking:  
Cookware must allow microwave energy to pass through it for maximum  
efficiency. Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminium  
and copper, but they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic  
as well as paper and wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers.

Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen  
vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard,  
soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a  
microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food  
that would normally be prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for  
example (see the chapter with tips, techniques and hints).

Covering during cooking  
To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises  
as steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in different  
ways: e.g. with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film.  
Standing times  
After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature  
to even out within the food.

Cooking Guide(continued)  
Cooking Guide for rice and pasta  
Cooking Guide for fresh vegetables  
GB  
Rice:  
Use a large glass pyrex bowl with lid - rice doubles in volume during  
cooking. Cook covered.  
After the cooking time is over, stir before standing time and salt or  
add herbs and butter.  
Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the cooking  
time is finished.  
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3 tbsp.) for  
every 250 g unless another water quantity is recommended - see table. Cook  
covered for the minimum time - see table. Continue cooking to get the result you  
prefer. Stir once during and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after  
cooking. Cover during a standing time of 3 minutes.  
Hint:  
Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they  
are cut, the quicker they will cook.  
Pasta:  
Use a large glass pyrex bowl. Add boiling water, a pinch of salt and  
stir well. Cook uncovered.  
Stir occasionally during and after cooking. Cover during standing  
time and drain thoroughly afterwards.  
All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (750 W).

Cooking Guide(continued)  
REHEATING  
REHEATING LIQUIDS  
GB  
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional  
ovens hobs normally take.  
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The  
times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20°C  
or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7°C.  
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been  
switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if  
necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and  
possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and  
stir before, during and after heating.  
Arranging and covering  
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry  
out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more  
successful.  
REHEATING BABY FOOD  
BABY FOOD: Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well  
after reheating! Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the  
temperature. Recommended serving temperature: between 30-40°C.  
Power levels and stirring  
Some foods can be reheated using 750 W power while others should be reheated  
using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.  
Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower  
power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up  
very quickly (mince pies, for example).  
BABY MILK: Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never  
heat a baby's bottle with teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake  
well before standing time and again before serving ! Always carefully check the  
temperature of baby milk or food before giving it to the baby. Recommended  
serving temperature: ca. 37°C.  
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir  
again before serving.  
REMARK:  
Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent  
burns.  
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive  
boiling of liquids and possible scalding , stir before, during and after heating.  
Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a  
plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore  
spoiling) the food.  
Use the power levels and times in the next table as a guide lines for reheating.  
It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if  
necessary.  
Heating and standing times  
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time  
taken - for future reference.  
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.  
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even  
out.  
The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another  
time is recommended in the chart.  
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter  
with the safety precautions.

DEFROSTING  
GB  
All frozen food should be defrosted using defrosting power level (180 W,  
).  
Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently  
defrost frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if  
unexpected guests suddenly show up.

time!  
Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain off any  
liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible.  
Check the food occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm.  
If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield  
by wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting.

parts like wings and ends with  
aluminium foil. Turn over after  
half of defrosting time!  
Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to  
stand for 20 minutes before continuing.  
Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The  
standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity  
defrosted. Please refer to the table below.

Grill Guide  
GRILL  
GB  
The grill-heating element is located underneath the ceiling of the cavity. It  
operates while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The turntable's  
rotation makes the food brown more evenly. Preheating the grill for 4 minutes will  
make the food brown more quickly.  
Preheat the heater with the grill-function when grilling fresh and frozen food.  
Use the power levels and times in this table as guide lines for grilling.

MICROWAVE + GRILL  
This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the  
speed of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is closed and the  
turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly.  
Three combination modes are available with this model:  
600 W + Grill, 450 W + Grill and 300 W + Grill.  
Cookware for cooking with microwave + grill  
Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should be  
flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any  
type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.

Food suitable for microwave + grill cooking:  
Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked food  
which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as foods which  
require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also, this mode can be  
used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g.  
chicken pieces, turning them over half way through cooking). Please refer to the  
grill table for further details.

back-wall in the vertical position. The food should be placed on the high rack,  
unless another instruction is recommended. Otherwise it has to be placed directly  
on the turntable. Please refer to the instructions in the following chart.  
The food must be turned over, if it is to be browned on both sides.
