Using this Instruction Booklet  
Thank you for purchasing a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your  
Owner’s Instructions contains much valuable information on cooking  
with your new microwave oven:  
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO  
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY  
GB  
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful  
exposure to microwave energy.  
Safety precautions  
Accessories and cookware  
Useful cooking tips  
(a) Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to operate the oven with  
the door open or to tamper with the safety interlocks (door latches) or to insert  
anything into the safety interlock holes.  
(b) Do not place any object between the oven door and front face, or allow food or  
cleaner residues to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Ensure that the door and  
door sealing surfaces are kept clean by wiping after use with first a damp cloth  
and then a final wipe with a soft dry cloth.  
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a  
qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.  
It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is  
no damage to the:  
Inside the cover you will find a quick look-up guide explaining three  
basic cooking operations:  
Cooking (microwave mode)  
Defrosting  
Adding an extra 30 seconds, if the dish is inadequately  
cooked or requires additional reheating  
At the end of the booklet you will find illustrations of the oven, and  
more importantly the control panel, so that you can find the buttons  
more easily.  
(1) Door, door seals and sealing surfaces  
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)  
(3) Power cable  
The illustrations in the step-by-step procedures use two different  
symbols.  
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly  
qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

Safety Precautions  
8. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.  
Important Safety Instructions.  
GB  
ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has  
been switched off to allow the temperature to equalize.  
Stir during heating if necessary and ALWAYS stir after heating.  
To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should stir before,  
during, and after heating.  
Read Carefully and keep for future reference.  
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check  
that the following safety precautions are taken.  
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions :  
1. DO NOT use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:  
*
*
*
Immerse hand in cold water for at least 10 minutes.  
Cover with clean, dry dressing.  
Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.  
Metallic containers  
Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings  
Skewers, forks, etc.  
NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at  
the top than at the bottom to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles  
with narrow necks may also explode if overheated.  
ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk before giving it to  
the baby.  
NEVER heat a baby's bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if  
overheated.  
During microwave heating of beverages, there are results in delayed  
eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the  
container.  
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.  
2. DO NOT heat:  
Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers. Ex) Baby food jars  
Airtight food. Ex) Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes  
Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.  
Tip: Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.  
3. DO NOT operate the microwave oven when it is empty.  
Reason: The oven walls may be damaged.  
Tip:  
Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times. The water will  
absorb the microwaves if you accidentally set the oven going when  
it is empty.  
9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.  
Do not immerse power cable or plug in water and keep power cable away  
from heated surfaces.  
4. DO NOT cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.  
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the  
oven.  
Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.  
10. Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the door.  
Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.  
5. ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.  
Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred  
from the food to the dish. The dishes are therefore hot.  
11. Keep the inside of the oven clean.  
Clean the inside of the oven right after each use with a mild detergent  
solution, but let the microwave oven cool down before cleaning in order to  
avoid injury.  
6. DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.  
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn skin even after cooking is  
finished, oven though they do not appear to be so. Keep away from  
hot spot. Do not allow inflammable materials to come into contact  
with any interior area of the oven. Let the oven cool down first.  
Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can  
cause the damage of painting and reduce the efficiency of the oven.  
12. “Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating, especially in defrosting  
mode.  
7. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity  
Reason: When the power output is changing electrically, you may hear that  
sound. This is normal.  
Do not store flammable materials in the oven  
Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags  
Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers  
If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and switch off or  
disconnect the oven from the power supply.

How a Microwave Oven Works  
Checking that Your Oven is Operating Correctly  
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy  
released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing  
either the form or the colour.  
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 “What to Do if You are in Doubt or Have a Problem” on the  
page.  
GB  
You can use your microwave oven to:  
Defrost  
Reheat  
Cook  
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% - 900 W) is used, the water takes  
longer to boil.  
Cooking Principle  
Open the oven door by pulling the handle on the right side of the door.  
Place a glass of water on the turntable. Close the door.  
1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are  
distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the  
turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.  
1. Press the Start ( ) button and set the time to 4 or 5  
2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a  
depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then  
minutes, by pressing the Start ( ) button the appropriate  
number of times.  
continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.  
Result:  
The oven heats the water for 4 or 5 minutes.  
The water should then be boiling.  
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)  
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

cookware that you would use in your normal oven.  
Microwave-safe cantainers are not usually suitable  
for convection cooking; don’t use plastic containers,  
dishes, paper cups, towels, etc.  
If you wish to select a combined cooking mode  
(microwave and grill or convection), use only  
recipients that are microwave-safe and oven-proof.  
Metallic cookware or utensils may damage your oven.  
For further details on suitable cookware and utensils, refer to the  
Cookware Guide on page 30 .

Choosing the Heating Element Position  
Spit-Roasting  
The heating element is used when grilling. There is only one position  
listed. We need to tell consumers when it should be placed in the  
vertlcal position.

GB  
The roasting spit is useful for barbecue cooking, as you do not need to  
turn the meat over. It can be used for combined microwave and  
Convection cooking.  
The heating element is used when cooking food by convection, grilling  
or spit roasting. It can be placed in one of two positions:  
Horizontal position for convection cooking and grilling  
Vertical position for spit roasting only (C138STB/C138STF/  
C139STB/C139STF)  
Make sure that the weight of the meat is evenly distributed on the  
spit and that the spit rotates freely.  
Always use oven gloves when touching the recipients in the oven,  
as they will be very hot.  
Only change the position of the heating element when it is cold  
and do not apply excessive force when placing it in the vertical  
position.  
1. Push the roasting spit through the centre of the meat.  
Example: Push the spit between the backbone and breast  
of a chicken.  
Place the spit on its stand and place the stand onto the  
glass bowl and the glass bowl onto the turntable. To help  
brown the meat, brush it with cooking oil.

MICROWAVES  
GB  
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Cook covered for the minimum time –  
see table. Continue cooking to get the result you prefer.  
Stir twice during cooking and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after  
cooking. Cover during standing time.  
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  
effectiveness. Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel,  
aluminum 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.

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.

REHEATING  
REHEATING LIQUIDS  
GB  
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional  
ovens and hobs normally take.  
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been  
switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if  
necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and  
possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and  
stir before, during and after heating.  
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The  
times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20°C  
or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7°C.  
Arranging and covering  
REHEATING BABY FOOD  
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry  
out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more  
successful.  
BABY FOOD:  
Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating!  
Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the temperature.  
Recommended serving temperature: between 30-40°C.  
Power levels and stirring  
Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be reheated  
using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.  
BABY MILK:  
Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a baby’s  
bottle with teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake well before  
standing time and again before serving! Always carefully check the temperature  
of baby milk or food before giving it to the baby. Recommended serving  
temperature: ca. 37°C.  
Check the tables for guidance.  
In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power level, if the food is  
delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly (mince pies, for  
example).  
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir  
again before serving.  
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive  
boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep  
them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a  
plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore  
spoiling) the food. It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra  
heating time, if necessary.  
REMARK:  
Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent  
burns. Use the power levels and times in the next table as a guide lines for  
reheating.  
Heating and standing times  
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time  
taken - for future reference.  
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.  
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even  
out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless  
another time is recommended in the chart.  
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter  
with the safety precautions.

Cooking Guide (continued)  
GRILL  
MICROWAVE + GRILL  
GB  
The grill-heating element is located underneath the ceiling of the cavity. It  
operates while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The turntable’s  
rotation makes the food brown more evenly. Preheating the grill for 4 minutes will  
make the food brown more quickly.  
This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the  
speed of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is closed and the  
turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly.  
Three combination modes are available with this model:  
600 W + Grill, 450 W + Grill and 300 W + Grill.  
Cookware for grilling:  
Should be flameproof and may include metal. Do not use any type of plastic  
cookware, as it can melt.  
Cookware for cooking with microwaves + grill  
Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should be  
flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any  
type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.  
Food suitable for grilling:  
Chops, sausages, steaks, hamburgers, bacon and gammon rashers, thin fish  
portions, sandwiches and all kinds of toast with toppings.  
Food suitable for microwaves + grill cooking:  
Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked food  
which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as foods which  
require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also, this mode can be  
used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g.  
chicken pieces, turning them over half way through cooking). Please refer to the  
grill table for further details.  
IMPORTANT REMARK:  
Whenever the grill only mode is used, make sure that the grill-heating element is  
under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-wall in the vertical  
position. Please remember that food must be placed on the high rack, unless  
another instruction is recommended.  
IMPORTANT:  
Whenever the combination mode (microwave + grill) is used, make sure that the  
grill heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the  
back-wall in the vertical position. The food should be placed on the high rack,  
unless another instruction is recommended. Otherwise it has to be placed directly  
on the turntable. Please refer to the instructions in the following chart.  
The food must be turned over, if it is to be browned on both sides.
