SENSOR POPCORN
The Sensor Popcorn feature is designed to be used
only with prepackaged microwave popcorn weighing
3.0 to 3.5 ounces.
Step 1: Remove the outer wrapper from the
microwave popcorn.
Step 2: Open oven door and place package of
popcorn in the center of the oven floor as directed
by the package instructions. Close oven door.
Step 3: Touch SENSOR POPCORN
pad. No need to touch START, the oven
will start immediately.
After the popcorn sensor
detects steam, the oven
signals and displays
remaining cooking
time needed.
Step 4: When cooking
is completed, the oven
signals and flashes
‘‘End.’’ Open the door
and remove the popcorn.
If food is undercooked after the countdown use
MICRO COOK for additional cooking time.
NOTE: Do NOT use the metal shelf with the
Sensor Popcorn program.
NOTE: Do not use this feature twice in
succession on the same food portion—it may
result in severely overcooked or burnt food.
Questions and Answers
Q. I opened the door to check on the popcorn and
“Error” appeared on the display. Why?
A. The Sensor Popcorn program first detects steam
and then switches to Micro Cook. If you open the
door while “POP” is displayed, “Error” will appear.
Close the door, touch CLEAR/OFF and begin
again. You may open the door when “End” appears
on display.
Q. Can I use regular popcorn with the Sensor
Popcorn feature in my microwave oven?
A. No. This automatic function is designed to be used
only with prepackaged microwave popcorn.
Q. When I touched the POPCORN pad, the oven
signaled and “HOT” appeared in the display,
and the feature would not operate. Why?
A. If the temperature inside the oven is greater than
200°, the sensor will not operate properly as the oven
does not allow the sensor cooking feature to be used.
SENSOR BEVERAGE
