Solution
This is normal operation, and not
a system failure. Use the oven as
usual.
To speed the process, set a self-
cleaning cycle for a minimum of
3 hours.
See the section on self-cleaning
on page 38.
Operate the oven at the bake
setting at 400 °F for 1 hour.

temperature.
Solution
This is normal. If the oven is in
a cold environment, the door
will close slower than it will in a
warmer environment. A warmer
than normal environment, such
as when cooking, may cause the
door to close slightly faster.
Failure of the soft closing
doesn't imply a system failure.
The oven operates normally
regardless of the soft closing
mechanism. However, if the
problem continues, contact a local
Samsung service center.
