How to Use the Popcorn Feature

1Follow package instructions, using Time Cook if the package is less than 3 oz (85 g) or larger

than 3.5 oz (100 g). Place the package of popcorn in the center of the microwave.

2Press POPCORN for a regular size (3 to 3.5 oz/ 85 to 100 g) bag of popcorn. The oven starts

immediately.

If you open the door while POPCORN is displayed, an error message will appear. Close the door and press START.

If food is undercooked after the countdown use Time Cook for additional cooking time.

How to Adjust the Popcorn Program to Provide a Shorter or Longer Cook Time

If you find that the brand of popcorn you use underpops or overcooks consistently, you can add or subtract 20–30 seconds to the automatic popping time.

To add time:

After pressing POPCORN, press 9 within the first 30 seconds after the oven starts for an extra 20 seconds.

Press 9 again to add another 10 seconds (total 30 seconds additional time).

To subtract time:

After pressing POPCORN, press 1 within the first

30 seconds after the oven starts for 20 seconds less cooking time.

Press 1 again to reduce cooking time another 10 seconds (total 30 seconds less time).
