Safety precautions should always be followed when using electrical
appliances. These precautions include the following:

2. Before operating the popcorn machine, always make sure it is located on a flat and level surface.
Do not place the unit on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
3. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Close supervision is necessary when it is being used
near children.
4. Position appliance close to a power outlet to avoid the possibility of tripping over the power cord.
5. Always connect the electrical cord between the popping kettle and the main unit first, and then
connect the main power cord into a wall outlet.
6. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not
attempt to modify the plug in any way.

13. Do not pop kernels with a dry popping kettle (i.e., without oil). To avoid overheating, always add oil
first and then kernels before operating.
14. Be very cautious when emptying popcorn from the popping kettle to avoid burns from the kettle or
from residual oil.
15. Allow HOT parts to cool down before moving. Use extreme caution when moving the appliance
containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
