In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current. This appliance is equipped with a cord that includes a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. WARNING WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

- Consult a qualified electrician or service if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if you are not sure if the appliance is properly grounded.

- Do not use an extension cord. If the power-supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance. Use of Extension Cords A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long cord or extension cord is used:

1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

. The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord and it must be plugged into a 3-slot outlet. 3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally. If you use an extension cord, the interior light may flicker and the blower may vary when the microwave oven is on. Cooking times may be longer, too.

It is important to choose the correct cookware, therefore look for cookware that is marked microwave-safe. The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates if and how they should be used in a microwave oven. mICROWAVE-SAFE UTENSILS If you are not sure whether an item is microwave-safe or not, you can perform the following simple test:

1. Place 1 cup of water (in a glass-measuring cup) inside your oven next to the item to be tested.

. Press the Add 30 sec. button twice to heat them both for one minute at high power. After one minute, the water should be warm and the item you are testing should be cool. If the dish is warm, then it is absorbing microwave energy and is not microwave-safe. mICROWAve-sAFe COmmeNTs 3 7 3 3 3 3 7 7 3 3 3 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. Do not preheat for more than eight minutes. Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, unless decorated with a metal trim. Some frozen foods are packaged in these materials. Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause the polystyrene to melt. May catch fire. May cause arcing. 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. Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter.

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. GENERAL mICROWAVE TIPS Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter foods. Foods with a delicate texture should be heated at a low power level to avoid becoming tough. Foods with a non-porous skin such as potatoes or hot dogs, should be pierced to prevent bursting. Putting heating oil or fat in the microwave is not recommended. Fat and oil can suddenly boil over and cause severe burns. Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example, the jelly in the jelly doughnut will be hotter than the dough. Keep this in mind to avoid burns. The altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect the cooking time. When using a new recipe, use the minimum cooking time and check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking. Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because not all harmful bacteria may be destroyed by the microwave heating process. Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat from the food is often transferred to the cookware. Always use pot holders when removing food from the microwave and instruct children to do the same. Making candy in the microwave is not recommended as candy can be heated to very high temperatures. Keep this in mind to avoid injury. Cooking techniques If the oven is set to cook for more than 25 minutes, it will automatically adjust to 70 percent power after 25 minutes to avoid overcooking. Stirring Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside towards the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food. Arrangement Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place thin or delicate parts towards the center of the turntable. Shielding Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven. Turning Turn foods over midway through the cooking cycle to expose all parts to the microwave energy. This is especially important with large items such as roasts. Standing Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete the cooking process, especially foods such as roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well and test the temperature before serving. 3_ cooking guide SMH9207_XAA-03686A_EN.indd 32 2009-04-15 11:54:06 I 0 4 C O O k N G G U d E I Adding moisture Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook. Venting After covering a dish with plastic wrap, vent the plastic wrap by turning back one corner to let excess steam escape. COOkING mEAT Place the meat fat side down on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe dish. Use narrow strips of aluminum foil to shield any bone tips or thin pieces of meat. Check the temperature in several places before letting the meat stand the recommended time. The following temperatures are the removal temperatures.

Cook them until they are just set as they become tough if they are overcooked. Never cook eggs in their shells, and never warm up hard-boiled eggs in their shells as they may explode. Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. WARNING COOkING VEGETAbLES Vegetables should be washed prior to cooking. Usually, no extra water is needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about cup water. Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones. Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over halfway through the cooking process. Always place vegetables such as asparagus and broccoli with the stems pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center. When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap. Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skins pierced in several spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting. For a more even cooking result, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cook time. Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (The standing time refers to the time necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes before cooking is completed, while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

CLEANING ThE ExTERIOR Its best to clean spills on the outside of your microwave oven as they occur. Use a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do not get water into the vents. Never use abrasive products or chemical solvents such as ammonia or alcohol as they can damage the appearance of your microwave. CAUTION Cleaning under your microwave oven Regularly clean grease and dust from the bottom of your microwave using a solution of warm water and detergent. Cleaning the control panel Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Do not use cleaning sprays, large amounts of soap and water, abrasives or sharp objects on the panel as it is easily damaged. Cleaning the door and door seals Always ensure that the door seals are clean and that the door closes properly. Take particular care when cleaning the door seals to ensure that no particles accumulate and prevent the door from closing correctly. Wash the glass door with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching. If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven at high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. CLEANING ThE INTERIOR Ensure that the microwave oven has cooled down before cleaning it to avoid injury. CAUTION CAUTION Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it with care and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher. Clean the interior surfaces (oven cavity) of your microwave oven periodically to remove any splashes or stains. To remove hardened food articles and remove smells, place 2 cups of water (add lemon juice for extra freshness) in a four-cup measuring glass (why a 4-cup measuring glass) at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let it stand in the oven for one or two minutes. CLEANING ThE TURNTAbLE ANd ROLLER RINGS Clean the roller rings periodically and wash the turntable as required. The turntable can safely be washed in your dishwasher. 38_ cleaning and maintaining your microwave oven SMH9207_XAA-03686A_EN.indd 38 2009-04-15 11:54:07 I 0 5 C L E A N N G A N d m A N T A N N G I I I cleaning and maintaining your microwave oven STORING ANd REPAIRING yOUR mICROWAVE OVEN If you need to store your microwave oven for a short or extended period of time, choose a dust-free, dry location.

If no power outage occurred, remove the plug from the outlet, wait ten seconds, and plug it in again. Reset the clock and any cooking instructions. Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuses. Make sure the oven has its own 20 amp circuit line. Operating another appliance on the same circuit can cause a voltage drop. If necessary, move the oven to its own circuit. Remove any metallic utensils, cookware, or metal ties. If using foil, use only narrow strips and allow at least one inch between the foil and the interior oven walls. Clean the turntable, roller ring and oven floor. Make sure the turntable and roller ring are positioned correctly. This is similar to interference caused by other small appliances, such as hair dryers. Move your microwave (or appliance) away from appliances, such as your TV or radio. 4_ troubleshooting SMH9207_XAA-03686A_EN.indd 42 2009-04-15 11:54:11 appendix SPECIFICATIONS mODel NUmBeR Oven Cavity Controls Timer Power Source Power Consumption Power Output smh907sT 2.0 cuft 10 power levels, including defrost 99 minutes, 99 seconds 120 VAC, 60 Hz 1650 Watts 1100 Watts Oven Cavity dimensions 22 1/32(W) X 10 7/8(H) X 14 7/8(D) Outside dimensions Shipping dimensions Net/Shipping Weight 29 7/8(W) X 16 1/2(H) X 16 1/2(D) 33 3/8(W) X 20 5/32(H) X 19 13/32(D) 52.7/60.6 lbs 0 6 A P P E N d x I SMH9207_XAA-03686A_EN.indd 43 2009-04-15 11:54:11 appendix _43 warranty SAmSUNG OVER-ThE-RANGE(OTR) mICROWAVE OVEN Limited warranty to original purchaser This SAMSUNG brand product, as supplied and distributed by Samsung Electronics America, Inc.
