NOTE: During Popcorn function, as with all microwave cooking functions, the microwave oven should be attended at all times. Listen for popping to slow to 1 pop every 1 or 2 seconds, then stop the cycle.

■To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not use regular paper bags or glassware.

■Pop only 1 package of popcorn at a time.

■Follow manufacturer’s instructions when using a microwave popcorn popper.

■For best cooking results, do not try to pop unpopped kernels.
