Using this Instruction Booklet

You have just purchased a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your Owner’s

Instructions contain much valuable information on cooking with your

microwave oven:

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO

EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful

exposure to microwave energy.

•

Safety precautions

Suitable accessories and cookware

Useful cooking tips

(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.

It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is

no damage to the:

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 inadequately cooked or

requires additional reheating

(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.

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 two different

symbols.

Important

Note

Safety Precautions

9. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.

Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check

that the following safety precautions are taken.

•

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.

•

1. Please don’t mind if the oven works continuously after the cooking is over.

Reason: This oven is designed to work without microwaving and grilling for

3 min to cool internal electric parts after the cooking is over.

•

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.

2. DO NOT use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:

•

Metallic containers

Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings

Skewers, forks, etc.

•

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.

During microwave heating of beverages, there are results in delayed

eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the

container.

Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.

•

3. DO NOT heat:

•

Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers. 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.

4. 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.

10. 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.

5. 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.

11. Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the door.

Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.

6. 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.

12. Keep the inside of the oven clean.

•

Clean the inside of the oven right after each use with a mild detergent

solution, but let the microwave oven cool down before cleaning in order to

avoid injury.

7. DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.

Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can

cause the damage of painting and reduce the efficiency of the oven.

Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn skin even after cooking is

finished, oven though 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.

13. “Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating, especially in defrosting

mode.

Reason: When the power output is changing electrically, you may hear that

sound. This is normal.

8. 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)

Installing Your Microwave Oven

This microwave oven can be placed almost anywhere (kitchen work

surface or shelf, movable trolley, table).

14. When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut

off automatically for safety. After standing for over 30 min, you can operate the

oven normally.

For your personal safety, this appliance must be:

•

DO NOT install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings.

•

Example: 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.

•

This microwave oven has to be connected to the plug endurable

to proper power consumption. This microwave oven has to be

positioned so that the plug is accessible.

Setting the Time

How a Microwave Oven Works

Your microwave oven has an inbuilt clock. The time can be displayed

in either the 24-hour or 12-hour notation. You must set the clock:

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy

released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing

either the form or the colour.

•

When you first install your microwave oven

After a power failure

You can use your microwave oven to:

Choosing the Accessories

Preheating the Oven

Traditional convection cooking does not require any

special cookware. You should, however, use only

cookware that you would use in your normal oven.

For convection cooking, it is recommended that you preheat the oven

to the appropriate temperature before placing the food in the oven.

When the oven reaches the requested temperature, it is maintained for

approximately 10 minutes; it is then switched off automatically.

Microwave-safe recipients are not usually suitable for

convection cooking; don’t use plastic containers,

dishes, paper cups, towels, etc.

Check that the heating element is in the correct position for the type of

cooking that you require. Open the door and place the turntable.

If you wish to select a combined cooking mode

(microwave and grill or convection), use only

recipients that are microwave-safe and oven-proof.

Metallic cookware or utensils may damage your oven.

Cooking by Convection

Grilling

The convection mode enables you to cook food in the same way as in a

traditional oven. Microwaves are not used. You can set the

temperature, as required, in a range varying from 40°C to 250°C. The

maximum cooking time is 60 minutes.

The grill enables you to heat and brown food quickly, without using

microwaves.

Food suitable for microwave cooking:

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).

Cooking Guide for rice and pasta

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.

Covering during cooking

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.

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.

REHEATING

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.

Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional

ovens and 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.

Hint:

Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they

are cut, the quicker they will cook.

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.

All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (900W).

Instructions

Power levels and stirring

Some foods can be reheated using 900 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).

Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir

again before serving.

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. 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.

Cooking Guide

DEFROSTING

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.

All frozen food should be defrosted using defrosting power level (180 W).

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.

GRILL

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 grill with the grill function for 3 minutes, unless indicated

differently.

Use the power levels and times in this table as guide lines for grilling.

Cookware for cooking with microwaves + 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 microwaves + 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.

IMPORTANT REMARK:

Whenever the combination mode (microwave + grill) is used, make sure that the

grill heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the

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.
