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
☛
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
What to Do if You are in Doubt or You have a
Problem
Becoming familiar with a new appliance always takes a little time. If
you have any of the problems listed below, try the solutions given. They
may save you the time and inconvenience of an unnecessary service
call.
◆ The following are normal occurrences.
• Condensation inside the oven
• Air flow around the door and outer casing
• Light reflection around the door and outer casing
• Steam escaping from around the door or vents
◆ The food is not cooked at all
• Have you set the timer correctly and pressed the
Start
( ) button?
• Is the door closed?
• Have you overloaded the electric circuit and caused a fuse to blow or a
breaker to be triggered.
◆ The food is either overcooked or undercooked
• Was the appropriate cooking length set for the type of food?
• Was an appropriate power level chosen?
◆ Sparking and cracking occur inside the oven (arcing)
• Have you used a dish with metal trimmings?
• Have you left a fork or other metal utensil inside the oven?
• Is aluminium foil too close to the inside walls?
◆ The oven causes interference with radios or televisions
• Slight interference may be observed on televisions or radios when the oven is
operating. This is normal.
* Solution: Install the oven away from televisions, radios and aerials.
• If interference is detected by the oven’s microprocessor, the display may be
reset.
* Solution: Disconnect the power plug and reconnect it. Reset the time.
◆ « E - 25 » message indicates
• The
« E - 25 »
message is automatically activated prior to the microwave oven
overheating. Should the
« E - 25 »
message be activated, then depress the
"
" key to utilize the initialization mode.
If the above guidelines do not enable you to solve the problem, then
contact your local Samsung customer service centre.
Please have the following information read;
• The model and serial numbers, normally printed on the rear of
the oven
• Your warranty details
• A clear description of the problem
Then contact your local dealer or SAMSUNG aftersales service.
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)
