The manual for my old Panasonic shows a model like you describe. Your
supposed to put plastic wrap over the dish. When it gets hot enough to
produce enough pressure to open the plastic the moisture release is what
stops it. I don't think normal microwave popcorn would have such an abrupt
moisture increase. Not saying your wrong, just pointing out it was a
drastic
abrupt increase in that model from 25years ago.

That's how my new sensor oven works except it expects you to use popcorn in
a bag.

Bags I use only have a small slot. The size never changes. The new circuitry

must be much more sensitive.

My microwave (late GE model) for some reason did not shut off via the
"popcorn" setting and totally burned a bag of microwave popcorn. The
burned smell is overwhelming. The oven still seems to work OK. Any hints
on getting the burned smell out? Is the oven likely damaged in any way?

Baking soda and charcoal briquettes are typical odor eaters.


Put the oven in a sack
take it back to radio shack
and get your money back
is better than an odor hack
