  Brenda MccarthySep 4, 2025
  If the power to your Samsung Microwave Oven turns off during operation, it could be due to several reasons. If the oven has been cooking for an extended period, allow it to cool down. Check if the cooling fan is working by listening for its sound. Ensure there is food inside the oven during operation. Verify there is enough ventilation space around the oven, using the intake/exhaust outlets on the front and rear. Also, make sure the oven is connected to its own dedicated power socket, rather than sharing with other appliances.

  Anna MullenSep 9, 2025
  If your oven is not cooking properly, this could be due to several reasons: * The oven door is frequently opened during cooking; do not frequently open the door unless you are cooking things that need to be turned. If you open the door often, the interior temperature will be lowered and this may affect the results of your cooking. * The oven controls are not correctly set; correctly set the oven controls and try again. * The grill or other accessories are not correctly inserted; correctly insert the accessories. * The wrong type or size of cookware is used; reset the oven controls or use suitable cookware with flat bottoms.

Why is my Samsung Microwave Oven thaw function not working?
- L
  Linda WillisSep 3, 2025
  If the thaw function does not work, it may not work because too much food is being cooked, or improper cookware is being used. Put one cup of water in a microwave-safe container and run the microwave for 1-2 minutes to check whether the water is heated. Reduce the amount of food and start the function again. Use a cooking container with a flat bottom.
