USING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
USING POPCORN
You can pop commercially packaged microwave
popcorn by touching just one pad. The number of
times you touch this pad determines which size of pop-
corn your oven will pop.
For best results:
Pop only one package at a time.
If you are using a microwave popcorn popper, follow
the manufacturer’s instructions.
Cooking performance may vary with brand and fat
content. Try several brands to decide which gives
best popping results.
Use fresh bags of popcorn.
1. Place the bag in the center of
the turntable and close the door.
2. Touch POPCORN 1-3 times to cycle
through popcorn bag sizes (3.5, 3.0,
1.75 oz [100, 85, 50 g])
After 3 seconds, oven starts popping popcorn:
Every 10 seconds the display will alternate between
“POP-” and “CORN” and then show the time
remaining.
At end of popping time: The display will show “END”.

USING ADD 1 MINUTE

function.
