Cookware Guide

To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to 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.

The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.

Users can easily choose from a variety of preset cooking functions tailored for specific food types, enhancing the cooking experience. The intuitive interface allows for precise adjustments in time and power settings, accommodating different cooking requirements.

These microwave ovens are powered by Samsung’s advanced grilling technology, which combines microwave and grill functions to achieve perfectly cooked and browned meals.

The ceramic material also helps to neutralize odors, ensuring that every cooking session is fresh and clean.

The energy efficiency of these microwave models is another noteworthy characteristic. Utilizing inverter technology, they provide a consistent power level, allowing for more even cooking without overcooking or undercooking food. This not only improves the quality of the dishes prepared but also contributes to saving on energy bills.

Safety features are paramount in these Samsung microwave ovens, ensuring peace of mind during operation. An automatic turn-off function prevents accidents, while child safety locks safeguard against unauthorized use by younger family members.

In summary, the Samsung ME1040WC/ZAM, MG1040WC5B/ZAM, MG1040WC-5/ZAM, ME1040WC5B/ZAM, and ME1040WC-5/ZAM models are not just ordinary microwave ovens.
