Lead

Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous sys- tem and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning.

zTCO'95 requirement Permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.

Cadmium

Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour generating layers of certain computer dis- plays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.

zTCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of cadmium. The colour-generating layers of display screens must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury

Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. Mercury damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.

zTCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of mercury. It also demands that no mercury is present in any of the electrical or electronics components concerned with the display unit.

CFCs (freons)

CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards and in the manufacturing of expanded foam for packaging. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, caus- ing increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light with consequent increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).

zThe relevant TCO'95 requirement: Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacturing of the product or its packaging.

Congratulations!

You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products.

This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for an international environmen- tal and quality labelling labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO(The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen(The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet(The Swedish National Energy Adminis- tration) and SEMKO AB.

The requirements cover a wide range of issuse: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical safety.

Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?

In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adapta- tion of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and dur- ing their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equip- ment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.

The top-notch wattage also contributes to shortened cooking times, which is a boon for busy households.

The MO17ESZC/XSG and the other models include a 1.7 cubic foot capacity, providing ample space for large dishes or multiple items, making it perfect for family meals or entertaining guests. The spacious interior is complemented by a ceramic enamel coating that not only enhances durability but also allows for easy cleaning, preventing the buildup of stains and odors.

Another noteworthy aspect is their sleek design. The combination of stainless steel surfaces and a minimalist aesthetic aligns perfectly with contemporary kitchen styles. The easy-to-read digital display and intuitive control panel simplify operation, allowing users to quickly select settings and customize cooking times.

Advanced sensor cooking technology is another hallmark of these models. This feature detects moisture levels in the food and automatically adjusts cooking time to ensure perfect results, preventing overcooked or undercooked meals. Such intelligent functionality takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking.

Moreover, the Samsung models are designed with multiple cooking options, including presets for popcorn, pizza, and other common snacks, ensuring that they cater to various culinary preferences. The addition of a grilling element in some models allows for enhanced cooking versatility, achieving crispy, browned results that mimic traditional oven-cooked food.

In terms of safety, these microwaves incorporate child safety locks, preventing accidental operation by curious little hands. The models are also designed with efficient energy consumption in mind, aligning with eco-conscious lifestyles and reducing overall power usage.

In summary, the Samsung MO17ESZC/XSG, MO17PSDS/VNT, MO17ESDS/EDC, MO17PSZSQ/EDC, and MO17ESDS/SAI microwaves exemplify a blend of style, efficiency, and advanced technology. Their robust features ensure they meet the demands of modern cooking while also providing an attractive addition to any kitchen decor. Whether heating leftovers, cooking meals from scratch, or defrosting ingredients, these microwaves are built to enhance culinary experiences.
