Solution
Make sure the plug is properly
connected to a grounded outlet.
If the wall outlet is controlled by a wall
switch, make sure the wall switch is
turned on.
Remove the plug from the outlet, wait
ten seconds, and plug it in again.
Reset the circuit breaker or replace
any blown fuses.
Plug a different appliance into the
outlet. If the other appliance doesn't
work, call a qualified electrician to
repair the wall outlet.
Plug the oven into a different outlet.
Make sure the door is closed securely.
Check if any packaging material or
anything else is stuck in the door seal.
Check if the door is damaged.
Touch Cancel twice and enter all the
cooking instructions again.
If there was a power outage, the time
indicator will display: 88:88.
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.
Set the vent mode to high.
The Vent Fan will only operate in low
speed mode while the microwave is
working.
The MWO makes noise during
operation. This is normal.
If you hear an abnormal sound
continuously, please contact the
Samsung Call Center (1-800-726-
7864).
