A:AnswerCode for most states is a receptacle in the cabinet above it not a hard wire to a junction box. Most states, check yours but you can’t go wrong with the receptacle.
You have to account for 1750 watts, which is the full draw possible on a 15a 110 outlet.
This is mainly due to the heating element for the slim fry and convection strings. Obviously that’s highest setting possible max draw 1750 watts.
The microwave function draws about 1000.
I’d recommend a dedicated 20a circuit for this unit. Then you are covered no question ever. I’m in the process of running that wire myself.
A:AnswerYes it does. It’s called a “slim fry.” I haven’t tried yet as I just had the unit installed. I did try the convection feature and love it. Convection is similar to the air fry. I highly recommend this appliance.
A:AnswerFor me SLIM FRY IS AN EPIC FAIL. Here’s why…
The preset options are strictly for store-bought frozen foods; heavily processed with unpronounceable additives. No thanks! If you prefer preparing your own dishes with fresh whole foods you are out of luck. There’s no way to set the time or temp of your choosing in slim-fry mode. I requested help from Samsung asking “what is the temp/time for each preset” so that I could determine what might work for my homemade versions (fresh not frozen) or to adapt the tons of healthy air-fry recipes available online or in cookbooks — and Samsung simply REFUSED to provide this info.
As a result, you have 2 options: Get yourself a real air fryer (extra expense & takes up valuable counter space), or BUY A DIFFERENT BRAND of MICROWAVE WITH AIR-FRY that’s adjustable and provides user-friendly Customer Support. Samsung’s gimmicky “Slim-Fry” feature is useless if you can actually cook. However it’s ideal for kids & teens whose parents don’t care what they eat and want convenience over good health.
A:AnswerGreetings,
Yes, the microwave and the range can be used at the same time; however, it will not speed up cooking since the range and the microwave are two different appliances.
Thank you and have a great day!

A:AnswerI’m not sure but I bought a Samsung smart with air fryer the fourth one installed microwave works but don’t use the air fryer or convection oven neither work
Contacted them and they don’t seem to care
A:AnswerHi there, Nujapa1! Great question. While this microwave can be installed above any range or cooktop, it does not have Wi-Fi or Bluetooth capabilities to connect with other smart devices. ^Jecca
A:AnswerExcellent question, Monsters! The term "convection" simply means the unit uses fans to help circulate the heat, creating a more even temperature throughout the compartment. Because this model is a microwave it uses a magnetron to heat, instead of a heating element like ovens use. The magnetron uses magnetic energy to heat, and therefore can be dangerous around metal objects. For this reason, metal cannot be used with this model. I do have this link (https://bit.ly/3C61teG) to the user manual. On page 58 you can find a list of recommended cookware. ^Jecca

A:AnswerYes, The air fryer (convection) function of this oven has allowed me to remove another one of those small annoying appliances off my counter top. BOTH the air fryer/convection function and the microwave function are great!! And the oven has built in recipes that conveniently combine both.
