What does "standing time" mean? "Standing time" means that after the timed
cooking period ends, food should be allowed
to stand either inside or outside of the oven to
completely finish cooking. Outside oven standing
time will allow the oven to be available for
other use. For inside oven standing time, you
can program a "0" power second stage of the

Do not re-pop unpopped kernels. Do not pop
