Frequently Asked Questions - MS23B3614AW SAMSUNG

How do I set the clock on my Samsung MS23B3614AW microwave?
Press the Clock Setting Button once for 24-hour mode or twice for 12-hour mode. Turn the Time/Weight Dial to set the hour, then press the clock button again. Turn the dial to set the minutes, and press the clock button to confirm. The time is displayed when not in use.
What power levels are available and how do I select them?
There are 6 power levels: HIGH (800 W), REHEAT (700 W), MEDIUM HIGH (600 W), MEDIUM (450 W), MEDIUM LOW (300 W), and LOW (100 W). Additionally, an AUTO DEFROST setting (180 W) is available. Turn the Variable Cooking Power Control Dial to select the desired level.
How do I use the Auto Defrost feature?
Place frozen food on a microwave-safe dish. Turn the Variable Cooking Power Control Dial to the Auto Defrost symbol. Use the Time/Weight Dial to set the weight (200-1500 g). The oven will automatically defrost; it beeps when it's time to turn the food. After defrosting, let the food stand for 20-60 minutes.
Can I use metal containers in this microwave?
No, metal containers (including aluminum foil in large amounts) should not be used as they can cause arcing and fire. Only use microwave-safe utensils such as glass, ceramic, and plastic marked for microwave use.
What should I do if the microwave doesn't start?
Check that the power cord is plugged in, the door is fully closed, and the time is set. If the child lock is activated, deactivate it. Also ensure there is no foreign matter on the control buttons or door seals. If the problem persists, contact Samsung support.
How do I clean the microwave?
Use a soft cloth with soapy water to clean inside and outside. Rinse and dry well. For stubborn odors, place a cup of diluted lemon juice in the center and heat on max power for 10 minutes. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steam cleaners, or allow water to enter the vents.
Why is my microwave making a popping sound and not working?
Popping sounds may occur if you are cooking sealed containers or using a lid. Do not heat sealed containers as they can burst. Ensure cookware is microwave-safe and not airtight. Remove any twist ties. If the sound continues, stop the oven and check the food.
What is the proper installation clearance for this microwave?
Place the microwave on a flat, level surface at least 85 cm above the floor. Allow 20 cm of clearance above and 10 cm behind and on both sides for ventilation. Do not install near heat sources or in damp areas.
How do I adjust the cooking time during operation?
While the microwave is running, turn the Time/Weight Dial to the right (clockwise) to increase the remaining cooking time. Turning left will stop the cooking completely.
How does the auto energy saving function work?
If no function is selected within 25 minutes during setting or after a temporary stop, the oven cancels the operation and returns to clock display. The oven lamp turns off automatically after 5 minutes if the door is left open.

General safety

Any modifications or repairs must be performed by qualified personnel only. Do not heat food or liquids sealed in containers for the microwave function. Do not use benzene, thinner, alcohol, or steam or high-pressure cleaners to clean the oven.

Do not install the oven: near a heater or flammable material; locations that are humid, oily, dusty or exposed to direct sunlight or water; or where gas may leak; or an uneven surface.

This oven must be properly grounded in accordance with local and national codes. Regularly use a dry cloth to remove foreign substances from the power plug terminals and contacts.

Microwave warning

Microwave heating of beverages may result in delayed eruptive boiling: always use caution when handling the container. Always allow beverages to stand at least 20 seconds before handling. If necessary, stir during heating. Always stir after heating.

In the event of scalding, follow these First Aid instructions:

  1. Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.

  2. Cover with a clean, dry dressing.

  3. Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.

To avoid damaging the tray or rack, do not put the tray or rack in water shortly after cooking.

Do not use the oven for deep fat frying because the oil temperature cannot be controlled. This could result in a sudden boil over of hot oils.

Oven use

How a microwave oven works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour.

You can use your microwave oven to:

  • Defrost
  • Reheat
    • Cook
    Cooking principle.

SAMSUNG MS23B3614AW - How a microwave oven works - 1

natural_image Line drawing of a microwave oven with a roasted chicken inside (no text or symbols)
  1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron reflected at cavity and are distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.
  2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.
  3. Cooking times vary according to the container used and the properties of the food:

• Quantity and density
- Water content
- Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)

SAMSUNG MS23B3614AW - How a microwave oven works - 2

CAUTION

As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

• Even cooking of the food right to the centre.
• The same temperature throughout the food.

Cooking/Reheating

The following procedure explains how to cook or reheat food.

SAMSUNG MS23B3614AW - Cooking/Reheating - 1

CAUTION

ALWAYS check your cooking settings before leaving the oven unattended. Never turn the microwave oven on when it is empty.

Open the door. Place the food in the centre of the turntable. Close the door.

Cookware guide

To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used. Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.

CookwareMicrowave-safeComments
Aluminum foil√×Can be used in small quantities to protect areas against overcooking. Arcing can occur if the foil is too close to the oven wall or if too much foil is used.
Crust plateDo not preheat for more than 8 minutes.
China and earthenwarePorcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, unless decorated with a metal trim.
Disposable polyester cardboard dishesSome frozen foods are packaged in these dishes.
Fast-food packaging• Polystyrene cups containers• Paper bags or newspaper• Recycled paper or metal trims√××Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause the polystyrene to melt.May catch fire.May cause arcing.
Glassware• Oven-to-tableware• Fine glassware√√Can be used, unless decorated with a metal trim.Can be used to warm foods or liquids. Delicate glass may break or crack if heated suddenly.

Microwaves

Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content.

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.

Cooking

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.

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 chutncys 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.
