Popcorn may be popped in a microwave oven corn popper. Microwave pop-
corn which pops in its own package is also available. Follow popcorn manu-
facturers’ directions and use a brand suitable for the cooking power of your
microwave oven.
)(#" When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, you can follow
recommended package instructions or use the popcorn button (refer to page
16). Otherwise, the popcorn may not pop adequately or may ignite and cause
a fire. Never leave oven unattended when popping popcorn. Allow the popcorn
bag to cool before opening; always open the bag facing away from your face
and body to prevent steam burns.
