I gotta double check and I'll follow up and edit this message but I just bought this couple weeks ago and it took me 2 secs to set it.. think I just went thru the hours until the pm appeared.. going thru the 12hr cycle and once passing 12 automatically turning into PM.. just recall it being simple..Maybe there's something wrong with yours? You cycled thru the 12hr cycle? Let me check and make sure I'm not forgetting something... I didn't even read the manual to do it, that's how easy it was..So if u tried everything could be defected?

Hi there, 
I can answer your question. The instructions are located in the user manual on page ten. (https://bit.ly/2YVrn2M). See below:

Your microwave oven is equipped with a built-in clock. Set
the clock when first installing your microwave oven and
after a power failure. The time is displayed whenever the
microwave oven is not being used.
1. Press the Power Level button for 3 seconds.
2. Use the number buttons to enter the current time.
You need to press at least three numbers to set the
clock. For example, if the current time is 5:00, press
5, 0, 0. The display will show: 500.
3. Press the Power Level button.
4. Use the Power Level button to select AM / PM.
5. Press the OK/START button.
6. A colon appears indicating that the time is set

Thank you for choosing Samsung. ^Brad
