SAFETY
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 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 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
circumstances.
Note
Connect the oven to a 20A circuit. When connecting
the oven to a 15A circuit, make sure that circuit
breaker is operable

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Cooking Utensils
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 spattering.
• Paper towels and napkins — Use for short-term
heating and covering; they absorb excess
moisture 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 recycled
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
prevent 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.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Cooking Techniques
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while
cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside
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
overcooking, 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 cooking,
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 chocolate,
should be shaken or stirred when cooking is
complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving.
When heating baby food, stir well and test the
temperature before serving.
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
disperses 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
texture 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 overcooking.
• 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 recommended.
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 cookware,
the heat is often transferred to the cookware.
Always use pot holders when removing food from
the microwave and instruct children to do the
same.

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.
• Use a tight cover to steam fish. A lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming.
• To avoid overcooking fish, check it at minimum cooking time.
GUIDE for Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave
• Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-boiled 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
• Vegetables should be washed just before cooking.
Often, no extra water is needed. If dense
vegetables 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 at half
the cooking time.
• Always place vegetables like asparagus and
broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the
edge of the dish with the heads 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, 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.

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.
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 sections of
the food.
Food Amount Procedure
Roast Beef, Pork 2.5-5.0 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.
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.
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.

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
electrician 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
circuit 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
abrasives.
• 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
cleaning 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 dishwasher.
• 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
scratching.
• If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door,
wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate 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
accidentally turned on.
