Using this Instruction Booklet
Safety Precautions
You have just purchased a SAMSUNG microwave oven. Your Owner’s
Instructions contain much valuable information on cooking with your
microwave oven:
• Safety precautions
• Suitable accessories and cookware
• Useful cooking tips
Inside the cover you will find a quick look-up guide explaining four
basic cooking operations:
• Cooking food
• Auto Power Defrosting of food
• Grilling food
• Adding extra cooking time
At the front 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.
The step-by-step procedures use three different symbols.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
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.
Important
Note
Caution
•
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens;
DO NOT use any metallic containers, Dinnerware with gold or silver
trimmings, Skewers, forks, etc.
Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags.
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.
• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven
due to the possibility of ignition;
Do not use your microwave oven to dry papers or clothes.
• Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time.
If normal times are allowed they may overheat and burn.
• If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door
closed in order to stifle any flames;
• Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling,
therefore care must be taken when handling the container; To prevent this
situation
ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been
switched off so that the temperature can equalize.
Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating.
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:
* Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
* Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
* Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.
• 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.
NEVER heat a babys bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if
overheated.
• The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred or shaken
and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns;
• Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in
microwave ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has
ended;
Also do not heat airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers, nuts in
shells, tomatoes etc.
• The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed;
• Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of
the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly
result in a hazardous situation;
• DO NOT cover the ventilation slots with cloths or paper. They may catch fire
as hot air is evacuated from the oven.
The oven may overheat and automatically switch itself off. It will remain
inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.
•
ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven to avoid
unintentional burn.
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to
microwave energy.
(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 first with a damp cloth
and then 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:
(1) Door (bent)
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)
(3) door seals and sealing surfaces
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly
qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

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.

Cooking Guide
MICROWAVES
Cooking Guide for frozen vegetables
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.
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.
COOKING
Food
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.
Foods suitable for microwave cooking:
Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen
veg-etables, 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 normal-ly 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.

Cooking Guide for fresh vegetables
REHEATING
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3 tbsp.) for
every 250 g unless another water quantity is recommended - see table. Cook
covered for the minimum time - see table. Continue cooking to get the result you
prefer. Stir once during and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after
cooking. Cover during a standing time of 3 minutes.
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional
ovens hobs normally take.
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.
Hint:
Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they are
cut, the quicker they will cook.
Arranging and covering
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.
All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (900 W).
Food
Portion. Time
(min.)
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.
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.
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.
REHEATING LIQUIDS
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.

Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently
defrost frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if
unexpected guests suddenly show up.
Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking. Remove any metal ties
and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away.
Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over halfway, drain off any liquid
and remove any giblets as soon as possible.
Check the food occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm.
If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield
by wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting.
Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to
stand for 20 minutes before continuing.
Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The
standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity
defrosted. Please refer to the table below.
Hint:
Flat food defrosts better than thick and smaller quantities need less
time than bigger ones. Remember this hint while freezing and
defrosting food.
For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to - 20 °C, use the
fol-lowing table as a guide.

GRILL
Grill Guide for frozen food
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.
Cookware for grilling:
Should be flameproof and may include metal. 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.
Use the power levels and times in this table as guide lines for grilling.

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.
MICROWAVE + GRILL
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 combina-tion modes are available with this model: 600 W + Grill, 450 W +
Grill and 300 W + Grill.
Cookware for cooking with microwave + grill
Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should be
flame-proof.
Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.
Food suitable for microwave + 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 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.

Storing and Repairing Your Microwave Oven
Wiring Instructions
A few simple precautions should be taken when storing or having your
microwave oven serviced.
WARNING THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
This appliance must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit, earthing
reduces the risk of electric shock providing an escape wire for the electric current. The
appliance is equipped with a mains lead which includes an earth wire for connecting to
the earth terminal of your mains plug. The plug must be plugged into a socket that is
properly installed and earthed.
The oven must not be used if the door or door seals are damaged:
• Broken hinge
• Deteriorated seals
• Distorted or bent oven casing
Only a qualified microwave service technician should perform repair
NEVER remove the outer casing from the oven. If the oven is faulty
and needs servicing or you are in doubt about its condition:
•
•
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
• Green-and yellow
: Earth
• Blue
: Neutral
• Brown
: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not
correspond with the coloured markings indentifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows.
Connect the green-and yellow wire to the terminal in the plug marked with the
letter E or the earth symbol ( ) or coloured green or green-and-yellow.
Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured
black.
Unplug it from the wall socket
Contact the nearest after-sales service centre
If you wish to store your oven away temporarily, choose a dry, dustfree place.
Reason: Dust and damp may adversely affect the working parts in
the oven.
This microwave oven is not intended for commercial use.
Installation & Wiring Instructions
IMPORTANT NOTE :
The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a mouldedplug incorporating a fuse.
The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug and, if it requires replacing,
a fuse approved to BS1363 of the same rating must be used.
Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted if the cover is detachable. If a
replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the
plug.
Replacement covers are available from your Dealer. If the fitted plug is not suitable for
the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point,
you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your Dealer for
assistance. However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse
and then safely dispose of the plug. Do not connect the plug to a mains socket, as
there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.
Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if in doubt
about any of these instructions.
The manufacturer of this oven will not accept any liability for
damage to persons or material for non observance of these
requirements.
There are no user+serviceable parts inside the oven and if the
mains lead of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced
by qualified service personnel approved by the manufacturer
because special tools are required.
WARNING
Ensure that the plug and power cord are not damaged
before use.
If you have any reason to remove the moulded plug
from this appliance, immediately remove the fuse and
dispose of the plug.
Do not connect the plug to a mains socket under any
circumstances as there is a danger of electric shock.
CIRCUITS
Your microwave oven should be operated on a
separate circuit from other appliances. Failure to do this
may cause the circuit breaker to trip, the fuse to blow,
or the food to cook more slowly.

Cooking Instructions On Food Packaging
Technical Specifications
Microwave Symbols
On the front of your oven there is a microwave oven symbol, as shown below.
This symbol has been introduced for your benefit when cooking or reheating packaged
food.
SAMSUNG strives to improve its products at all times. Both the design EN
specifications and these user instructions are thus subject to change
without notice.
Packaged food is also, increasingly, using a microwave symbol similar to the one

Symbol on food packaging, the cooking instructions are based on either the IEC
Power Output Rating, or the Reheating Categories A, B, C, D or E.
Cooking Instructions
The IEC Power Output rating is an internationally standardised rating, so all microwave
manufacturers now use the same method of measuring power output.
If food packaging gives cooking instructions based on IEC Power ratings, set cooking
times according to the IEC Power of your oven.
For example :
If the cooking instructions are based on a 650W oven, then you will need to reduce
some cooking time for the GE109M / GE109MST (900W)
Ready meals are now very convenient and popular. These are meals which are
already prepared and cooked by the food manufacturer, and then frozen, chilled or
vacuum sealed for long life.
Increasingly, heating times for such ready meals are being based on the Heating
Categories A, B, C, D and E.
On this instance, simply match the heating category of your oven to the instructions on
the food package, and set your timer accordingly.
For example :
If the heating instructions are 3 minutes on HIGH for a D category oven, then you will
need to set your timer for less than 3 minutes on HIGH for the GE109M / GE109MST
(E category).
Always remember that cooking instructions are intended only as a
guide. If you have followed the instructions and the food is still not
piping hot throughout, simply return it to the oven and cook it until it is.
