- Never place the popper in the microwave oven empty. Damage to your oven can occur.
- It is very important to use fresh kernels that have not dried out and to store them in an airtight container to maintain their moisture. Popcorn kernels do not last indefinitely.
- Do not refrigerate kernels as this can dry them out.
- Do not use kernels past the manufacturer's expiration date.
- WARNING! Dried out kernels can cause damage to your microwave and, in extreme cases, even cause fires.

4. Konfiguracja
Before first use, wash all components with warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher. Ensure all parts are completely dry before assembly and use.
The 3-in-1 silicone lid serves multiple functions:
- Miarka: The inner ring of the lid indicates the recommended amount of kernels for a single serving.
- Wentylacja: Small holes in the lid allow steam to escape during popping, preventing sogginess.
- Butter Melter: A small square of butter can be placed on top of the lid, allowing it to melt and drizzle over the popcorn as it pops.

Microwave Popping:
Place the popper with the lid securely on top into your microwave. For most microwaves, popping should begin in 60-90 seconds. The average popping time is 2.5 to 3 minutes. Listen carefully; stop the microwave when the popping slows to one pop every 2 seconds to prevent burning.

7. Rozwiązywanie Problemów
Typowe problemy i rozwiązania:
Kernels not popping or burning:
Ensure you are using fresh kernels. Old or dried-out kernels may not pop efficiently or can burn. Store kernels in an airtight container to maintain moisture. Do not refrigerate kernels as this can dry them out. Discard kernels past their expiration date.
Adjust microwave time: Understand your microwave's power. Run a few tests with fresh kernels to establish the optimal popping time. Pay attention to the sound; stop the oven if kernels have not started to pop within 2 minutes or if popping slows significantly (more than 2 seconds between pops).
Popcorn is soggy:
Ensure the lid is properly placed to allow steam to vent through the holes. Overfilling the popper can also lead to soggy popcorn.
Damage to microwave:
Never place the popper in the microwave empty. Ensure your microwave has a functioning, rotating turntable and is clean. Do not use the "popcorn" preset button on your microwave, as it may use an incorrect power level or duration.
