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.

Do not pull, excessively bend, or place heavy objects on the power cord.

If there is a gas leak (propane, LP, etc) ventilate immediately. Do not touch the power cord.

Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.

While the oven is operating, do not turn it off by unplugging the power cord.

Do not insert fingers or foreign substances. If foreign substances enter the oven, unplug the power cord and contact a local Samsung service centre.

Do not apply excessive pressure or impact to the oven.

Do not place the oven over fragile objects.

Ensure the power voltage, frequency, and current matches the product specifications.

Firmly plug the power plug into the wall socket. Do not use multiple plug adapters, extension cords, or electric transformers.

Do not hook the power cord on metal objects. Make sure the cord is between objects or behind the oven.

Do not use a damaged power plug, power cord, or loose wall socket. For damaged power plugs or cords, contact a local Samsung service centre.

Do not pour or directly spray water onto the oven.

Do not place objects on the oven, inside, or on the oven door.

Do not spray volatile materials such as insecticide on the oven.

Do not store flammable materials in the oven. Because alcohol vapours can contact hot parts of the oven, use caution when heating food or drinks containing alcohol. Children may bump themselves or catch their fingers on the door. When opening/closing the door, keep children away.

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.

Microwave oven precautions

Only use microwave-safe utensils. Do not use metallic containers, gold or silver trimmed dinnerware, skewers, etc.

Remove wire twist ties. Electric arcing may occur.

Do not use the oven to dry papers or clothes.

Use shorter times for small amounts of food to prevent overheating or burning. Keep the power cord and power plug away from water and heat sources.

To avoid the risk of explosion, do not heat eggs with shells or hard-boiled eggs. Do not heat airtight or vacuum-sealed containers, nuts, tomatoes, etc.

Do not cover the ventilation slots with cloth or paper. This is a fire hazard. The oven may overheat and turn off automatically and will remain off until it cools sufficiently.

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.

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)

NOTE

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.

Checking that your oven is operating correctly

The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is working correctly at all times. If you are in doubt, refer to the section entitled "Troubleshooting" on the page 22 to 24.

SAMSUNG MS23K3523AW - Checking that your oven is operating correctly - 1

NOTE

The oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable must be in position in the oven. If a power level other than the maximum (100% - 800 W) is used, the water takes longer to boil.

Open the oven door by pulling the handle.

Place a glass of water on the turntable. Close the door.

SAMSUNG MS23K3523AW - NOTE - 1

Press the START/+30s button and set the time to 4 or 5 minutes, by pressing the START/+30s button the appropriate number of times.

Result: The oven heats the water for 4 or 5 minutes.

The water should then be boiling.

Cooking/Reheating

The following procedure explains how to cook or reheat food.

CAUTION

ALWAYS check your cooking settings before leaving the oven unattended.

Open the door. Place the food in the centre of the turntable. Close the door. Never switch the microwave oven on when it is empty.

SAMSUNG MS23K3523AW - CAUTION - 1

  1. Press the Microwave button.

Result: The 800 W (Maximum cooking power) indications are displayed:

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 packagingPolystyrene cups containersPaper bags or newspaperRecycled paper or metal trims√✗✗Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause the polystyrene to melt.May catch fire.May cause arcing.

Cooking guide

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 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.
