Important Grounding
Instructions
This appliance must be to a grounded, metallic,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment
grounding conductor should be run with the cir-
cuit 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
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 under-
stand 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
THE VENT FAN
The fan will operate automatically under certain
conditions (see page 14).Take care to prevent the
starting and spreading of accidental cooking fires
while the vent fan is in use.
• Clean the underside of the microwave often. Do
not allow grease to build up on the microwave or
the fan filters.
• In the event of a grease fire on the surface units
below the microwave oven, smother a flaming
pan on the surface unit by covering the pan
completely with a lid, a cookie sheet or a flat
tray.
• Use care when cleaning the vent fan filters.
Corrosive cleaning agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may damage the filters.
• When preparing flaming foods under the micro-
wave, turn the fan on.
• Never leave surface units beneath your
microwave oven unattended at high heat set-
tings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite and spread if the
microwave vent fan is operating. To minimize
automatic fan operation, use adequate sized
cookware and use high heat on surface units
only when necessary.

Cooking Utensils
This section lists which utensils can be used in the
microwave, which ones have limited use for short
periods, and which ones should not be used in the
microwave.
Recommended Use
• Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes —
Use for heating or cooking.
• Microwave browning dish — Use to brown the
exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or
pancakes. Follow the directions provided with
your browning dish.
• Microwavable plastic wrap — Use to retain
steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to
escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.
• Wax paper — Use as a cover to prevent spatter-
ing.
• Paper towels and napkins — Use for short-term
heating and covering; they absorb excess mois-
ture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled
paper towels, which may contain metal and can
catch fire.
• Paper plates and cups — Use for short-term
heating at low temperatures. Do not use recy-
cled paper, which may contain metal and can
catch fire.
• Thermometers — Use only those labeled
“Microwave Safe” and follow all directions.
Check the food in several places. Conventional
thermometers may be used once the food has
been removed from the oven.
Limited Use
• Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to pre-
vent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too
much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.
• Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware —
Use these
if they are labeled “Microwave Safe.” If they are
not labeled, test them to make sure they can be
used safely. Never use dishes with metallic trim.
• Plastic — Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe.”
Other plastics can melt.
• Straw, wicker, and wood — Use only for short-
term heating, as they can be flammable.
Not Recommended
• Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is too
thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter.
• Paper bags — These are a fire hazard, except
for popcorn bags that are designed for
microwave use.
• Styrofoam plates and cups — These can melt
and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
• Plastic storage and food containers —
Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in
the microwave.
• Metal utensils — These can damage your oven.
Remove all metal before cooking.
Testing Utensils
If you are not sure whether a dish is microwave-
safe or not, you can perform this test:
1Fill a 1 cup glass measuring cup with
water and put it inside your oven, next to
the dish you want to test.
2Press the One Minute+ button once to
heat them for one minute at High power.
The water should be warm and the dish you are
testing should be cool. If the dish is warm, then it is
absorbing microwave energy and is not acceptable
for use in the microwave.

Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules.
Food that is uneven in moisture content should be
covered or allowed to stand so that the heat dis-
perses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry
food to help it cook.
General Tips
• Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to
heat than lighter foods. Foods with a delicate tex-
ture should be heated at a low power level to avoid
becoming tough.
• Altitude and the type of cookware you are using
can affect cooking time. When using a new
recipe, use the minimum cooking time and
check the food occasionally to prevent over-
cooking.
• Foods with a non-porous skin or shell, such as
potatoes, eggs, or hot dogs, should be pierced
to prevent bursting.
• Frying with heating oil or fat is not recommend-
ed. Fat and oil can suddenly boil over and
cause severe burns.
• Some ingredients heat faster than others. For
example, the jelly inside a jelly doughnut will be
hotter than the dough. Keep this in mind to avoid
burns.
• Home canning in the microwave oven is not
recommended because all harmful bacteria may
not be destroyed by the microwave heating
process.
• Although microwaves do not heat the cook-
ware, the heat is often transferred to the cook-
ware. Always use pot holders when removing
food from the microwave and instruct children
to do the same.
Cooking Techniques
Your microwave makes cooking easier than con-
ventional cooking, provided you keep these consid-
erations in mind:
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while
cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the out-
side of the dish absorbs more energy and heats
more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center.
The oven will turn off when you open the door to
stir your food.
Arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken
pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts
toward the outside of the turntable where they
receive more microwave energy. To prevent over-
cooking, place thin or delicate parts toward the
center of the turntable.
Shielding
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to
prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding
include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs,
and corners of square baking dishes. Use only
small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts
can damage your oven.
Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose
all parts to microwave energy. This is especially
important with large items such as roasts.
Standing
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal
heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after
the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete cook-
ing, especially foods such as roasts and whole
vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete
cooking in the center without overcooking the
outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot choco-
late, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is
complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serv-
ing. When heating baby food, stir well and test the
temperature before serving.

• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking.
Often, no extra water is needed. If dense vegeta-
bles such as potatoes, carrots and green beans
are being cooked, add about 1/4 cup water.
• Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans,
etc.) will cook faster than larger ones.
• Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn
squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in
a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will
cook more evenly if turned over after half the
cooking time.
• Always place vegetables like asparagus and broc-
coli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge
of the dish and the tips toward the center.
• When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the
dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic
wrap.
• Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes,
squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin
pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent
them from bursting.
• For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole
vegetables halfway through the cooking time.
• Generally, the denser the food, the longer the
standing time. (Standing time refers to the time
necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables
to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.)
A baked potato can stand on the counter for five
minutes before cooking is completed, while a dish
of peas can be served immediately.
GUIDE for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave
• Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode.
• Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
• Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked.
GUIDE for Cooking Vegetables in Your Microwave
GUIDE for Cooking Seafood in Your Microwave
• Cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork.
• Place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish.

AUTO DEFROSTING GUIDE
• Follow the instructions below when defrosting different types of food.
Notes
Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let them stand to
continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals have thawed.
Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the center of
the food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner sec-
tions of the food.
Roast Beef, Pork 2.5-6.0 lbs. Start with the food placed fat side down. After each stage, turn
the food over and shield any warm portions with narrow strips
of aluminum foil.
Ground Meat 0.5-3.0 lbs. After each stage, remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered with foil, for 5–10 minutes.
Whole Chicken 2.5-6.0 lbs. Remove giblets before freezing poultry. Start defrosting with the
breast side down. After the first stage, turn the chicken over
and shield any warm portions with narrow strips of aluminum
foil. After the second stage, again shield any warm portions
with narrow strips of aluminum foil. Let stand, covered, for
30–60 minutes in the refrigerator.
Chicken Pieces 0.5-2.0 lbs. After each stage, rearrange or remove any pieces of food that
are nearly defrosted. Let stand for 10-20 minutes.
Steaks, Chops, Fish 0.5-3.0 lbs. After each stage, rearrange the food. If there are any warm or
thawed portions of food, shield them with narrow flat pieces of
aluminum foil. Remove any pieces of food that are nearly
defrosted. Let stand, covered, for 5-10 minutes.

Troubleshooting Guide
Before you call a repair person for your oven,
check this list of possible problems and solutions.
Neither the oven’s display nor the oven operate.
• Properly insert the plug into a grounded outlet.
• If the outlet is controlled by a wall switch, make
sure the wall switch is turned on.
• Remove the plug from the outlet, wait ten seconds,
then plug it in again.
• Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuse.
• Plug another appliance into the outlet; if the other
appliance doesn’t work, have a qualified electri-
cian repair the outlet.
• Plug the oven into a different outlet.
The oven’s display works, but the power won’t come
on.
• Make sure the door is closed securely.
• Check to see if packing material or other material
is stuck to the door seal.
• Check for door damage.
• Press Cancel twice and re-enter all cooking
instructions.
The power goes off before the set time has elapsed.
• If there has not been a power outage, remove the
plug from the outlet, wait ten seconds, then plug it
in again. If there was a power outage, the time
indicator will display “SAMSUNG SO SIMPLE”
Reset the clock and any cooking instructions.
• Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuse.
The food is cooking too slowly.
• Make sure the oven is on its own 20 amp circuit
line. Operating another appliance on the same cir-
cuit can cause a voltage drop. If necessary, move
the oven to its own circuit.
You see sparks or arcing.
• 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.
The turntable makes noises or sticks.
• Clean the turntable, roller ring and oven floor.
• Make sure the turntable and roller ring are
positioned correctly.
Using your microwave causes TV or radio
interference.
• This is similar to the interference caused by other
small appliances, such as hair dryers. Move your
microwave further away from other appliances,
like your TV or radio.
Care and Cleaning
Follow these instructions to clean and care for your
oven.
• Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles
and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls,
causing the oven to work less efficiently.
• Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and
mild soap. Do not use harsh detergents or abra-
sives.
• To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids,
heat two cups of water (add the juice of one lemon
if you desire to keep the oven fresh) in a four-cup
measuring glass at High power for five minutes or
until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two
minutes.
• Remove the glass tray from the oven when clean-
ing the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from
breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it in
water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray
carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwash-
er.
• Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap
and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. To prevent
damage to the operating parts of the oven, don’t let
water seep into the openings.
• Wash the door window with very mild soap and
water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratch-
ing.
• If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven
door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumu-
late when operating the oven in high humidity and
in no way indicates microwave leakage.
• Never operate the oven without food in it; this can
damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may
wish to leave a cup of water in the oven when it is
not in use to prevent damage if the oven is acci-
dentally turned on.

Exhaust Feature
The Vent Fan
The exhaust fan has 1 metal reusable grease
filters.
Models that recirculate air back into the room also
use a charcoal filter.
Reusable Grease Filters
The metal filters trap grease released by foods on
the cooktop. They also prevent flames from foods
on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the
microwave.
For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in
place when the hood is used. The grease filters
should be cleaned once a month, or as needed.
Removing and Cleaning the Filter
To remove, slide it to the rear using the tab. Pull it
down and out.
To clean the grease filter, soak it and
then swish it around in hot water and detergent.
Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products because
they will darken the metal.
Light brushing can be used to remove embedded
dirt.
Rinse, shake and let it dry before replacing.
To replace, slide the filter in the frame slot on the
right of the opening. Pull up and to the left to lock
into place.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned.
It must be replaced.
If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will
be recirculated through a disposable charcoal filter
that helps remove smoke and odors.
The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is
noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to 12
months, depending on hood usage).
To Remove Charcoal Filter
To remove the charcoal filter, disconnect power at
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or pull the
plug.
Remove the top grille by removing the
2 screws that hold it in place. Slide the filter towards
the front of the oven and remove it.
To Install Charcoal Filter
To install a new filter, remove plastic and other
outer wrapping from the new filter.
Insert the filter into the top opening of the oven as
shown. It will rest at an angle on 2 side support tabs
and in front of the right rear tab. Replace the grille
and 2 screws.
