(35°C) and the outside of the container and the microwave oven
cavity are dry.
POPCORN
The Popcorn program senses bag sizes 1.75-3.5 oz (50-99 g).
For bag sizes not listed in this section, follow directions on
package.
• Pop only one package at a time.
• Do not use regular paper bags or glassware.
• Do not try to pop unpopped kernels.
• Use fresh bags of popcorn for optimal results.
• Cooking results may vary by brand and fat content.
• If using a microwave popcorn popper, follow manufacturer's
instructions.
• If popcorn volume is less than expected, try placing a
microwave-safe dish upside down on the turntable, placing a
fresh popcorn bag on the dish, and then starting the cycle.
NOTE: The Popcorn times are programmed to run 15 seconds
longer than the actual pop time. During this 15-second period,
the magnetron is off, and the microwave oven is cooling. This
allows the microwave oven to pop another bag of popcorn
immediately following the cycle.
To Use Popcorn:
1. Place popcorn bag on the turntable and close the door.
2. Touch POPCORN
The cycle will start automatically. "SENSES 1.75-3.50Z" will

the edges, about 1" (2.5 cm) apart.
