HOW TO OPERATE
Before rst use, clean the inside of the unit by wiping with a moist, non-abrasive
sponge, towel or cloth and then wipe with a non-abrasive dry towel. Wipe down the
inside of the Kettle and be sure it is properly placed in the brackets before starting.
1. First, nd a at surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure your cord
is away from any water source. It is acceptable to use an extension cord if needed.
2. Gather your popcorn making supplies: popcorn, seasonings, cooking oil, Serving
Bowl, Kernel Measuring Cup and Oil Measuring Spoon. (Serving Bowl, Kernel
Measuring Cup and Oil Measuring Spoon are included with your unit.)
3. Plug the appliance into the wall outlet while switch is ipped to OFF position.
4. Make sure Kettle is properly secured in the support brackets, and kettle motor cord is fully
plugged into the outlet located on the bottom side of the kettle. The kettle cord is located
on the ceiling of the unit.
NOTE: Kettle will not heat if plug is not fully inserted.
5. Turn appliance ON by ipping the switch on the top of the machine.
Allow the appliance to run 3-5 minutes to heat up the Kettle.
6. Turn unit OFF.
7. Use the supplied Oil Measuring Spoon to add 1 tablespoon of your favorite popcorn
cooking oil to the Kettle. For best results, it is suggested to use coconut oil.
8. Add ¼ cup (2 oz.) popcorn kernels to the Kettle using the supplied Kernel Measuring Cup.
NOTE: DO NOT overll or pack kernels into Kernel Measuring Cup as this will crowd the
Kettle. Doing so may result in more unpopped kernels and cause kernels to smoke or burn.
9. Turn the unit ON and close the door. In no time at all, you will hear the popping begin. Fresh,
hot popcorn will begin to burst out of the ip lids on the Kettle!
NOTE: Steam produced during the popping process is normal.
10. Once the kernels have stopped popping, turn the unit OFF and tip the Kettle using the red
knob on the Crank Handle to release the popcorn.
NOTE: Do not allow motor to continue to run after popcorn is done popping.
IMPORTANT: Extreme caution must be used when emptying popcorn. Always make
sure the unit is over a countertop so that residual hot oil running out will not cause burns.
11. Fill the Serving Bowl with popcorn by turning the Popcorn Dispenser Dial. Add desired
popcorn seasonings by turning the Seasoning Dispenser Dials.
NOTE: Seasoning Dispenser is ONLY to be lled with powdered seasonings.
Non-powdered seasonings may leak or clog the dispenser.
12. After each batch of popcorn, check for and empty any
unpopped kernels from the Kernel Catcher.

HELPFUL TIPS
NEVER leave the unit unattended while operating.
SMOKING
If your POP-O-MATIC POPCORN DISPENSER begins to smoke during
cooking, it may be due to grease build up. In order to reduce smoking,
make sure that you clean the inside of the Kettle between uses.
POPCORN
The POP-O-MATIC POPCORN DISPENSER is designed for all regular and premium
brands of popping corn. Yellow corn generally pops better than white corn,
while some brands of kernels have a harder outer shell and may result in
fewer popped kernels. Try dierent brands to nd which you like best.
If you notice you are experiencing a lot of unpopped kernels, try adding
more oil to the Kettle. More oil may help pop more kernels.
Always use fresh popcorn. Dried out, stale, or old popcorn pops poorly
as it has lost its moisture content and may scorch. We recommend
storing popcorn in an airtight container in a cool place.
Occasionally popcorn does not pop. This is usually the result of environmental factors
such as freshness and moisture content of the popcorn, or variances of popcorn
type. Unpopped kernels do not necessarily indicate a defect in the appliance.
When lling the Kernel Measuring Cup, make sure to not ll above the marked line.
Underlling can cause less kernels to pop and more unpopped kernels to come out of the
unit. Overlling can cause popped corn to burn and smoke, as it will overll the Kettle.
SEASONING
For more buttery popcorn or when adding seasonings, a spritz of olive oil,
water or butter will allow the seasonings to better stick to the popcorn.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT place butter, seasonings, or anything other than popcorn kernels
into the popcorn Kettle. Use of these substances may cause hazards and may damage the
unit.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, make sure appliance is unplugged from wall outlet, and the kettle cord
is unplugged from the kettle. Allow the unit to cool completely before cleaning.
1. After kettle cord has been unplugged and Kettle has completely cooled,
turn Crank Handle clockwise to loosen and remove from Kettle.
2. Remove Kettle from support brackets.
3. Take the Kettle out of the main unit. After removing Kettle from main unit, ll the Kettle with
a small amount of hot, soapy water.
NOTE: To protect the kettle cord receptacle from getting wet, never
allow water or liquid of any kind near or in the kettle cord receptacle.
Never place any parts in the dishwasher. Always wash by hand.
4. Allow the Kettle to sit for 15 to 20 minutes to cut the grease. (Time required to cut grease
may vary – use your own judgment depending on the amount of cleaning necessary.)
5. Carefully empty water from the Kettle, taking care to not get water
into the kettle cord receptacle. If necessary, use the scrubber side
of a cleaning sponge to scrub the inside of the Kettle.
6. Rinse inside of the Kettle carefully and dry with a non-abrasive towel.
Wipe the outside of the Kettle with a damp cloth and then dry.
7. Use a slightly damp, non-abrasive sponge, towel or cloth to wipe down the inside and
outside of the main unit, as well as the Seasoning Dispensers and Serving Bowl. Then wipe
with a non-abrasive towel to dry. For stubborn soils, a citrus degreaser may be used on the
panel windows and door.
IMPORTANT: Not all citrus degreasers are the same and some may contain chemicals
that may damage your unit! We recommend testing the degreaser on a small,
inconspicuous spot on the unit to ensure the chemicals do not damage your panels.
8. Place the Kettle back into the brackets of the main unit and screw in
the Crank Handle, turning counter-clockwise to tighten.

CÓMO UTILIZAR
Antes del primer uso, limpie el interior de la unidad con una esponja, toalla o paño no
abrasivos húmedos y entonces séquelo con una toalla seca no abrasiva. Limpie el interior del
caldero y asegúrese de que esté correctamente colocado en los soportes antes de comenzar.
1. Primero, encuentre una supercie plana cerca de un tomacorriente eléctrico
antes de comenzar. Asegúrese de que el cable esté lejos de una fuente
de agua. Es aceptable usar un cable de extensión si es necesario.
2. Reúna sus suministros para palomitas de maíz: palomitas de maíz,
condimentos, aceite de cocina, envase para servir, taza medidora de pepitas
y cuchara medidora de aceite. (El envase de servir, la taza para medir los
granos y el cucharón para medir el aceite se incluyen con la unidad).
3. Enchufe el aparato en el tomacorriente mientras el interruptor se gire a la posición OFF.
4. Asegúrese de que el caldero esté jado apropiadamente en las abrazaderas de soporte y
el motor del caldero esté totalmente conectado a la toma situada en la parte inferior del
caldero. El cable del caldero está situado en el techo de la unidad.
NOTA: El caldero no calentará si no se ha insertado totalmente el enchufe.
5. Encienda el aparato al mover el interruptor en la parte superior de la máquina.
Permita que el aparato funcione de 3 a 5 minutos para calentar el caldero.
6. Apague la unidad.
7. Utilice el cucharón para medir aceite provisto para añadir una cucharada
de su aceite favorito para cocinar palomitas de maíz en el caldero. Para
obtener mejores resultados, se sugiere usar aceite de coco.
8. Añada V tazas (2 onzas) de palomitas de maíz al caldero con la taza para medición de
granos.
NOTA: NO sobrellene o empaque las pepitas en la taza medidora de
pepitas ya que esto llenará el caldero. Hacerlo así podría poducir más
pepitas no explotadas, humo o que las pepitas se quemen.
9. Encienda la unidad y cierre la puerta. En breve escuchará las explosiones. ¡Las palomitas de
maíz, frescas y calientes, comenzarán a brotar por las tapas abatibles del caldero!
NOTA: El vapor producido durante el proceso de explotación es normal.
10. Una vez que las pepitas hayan dejado de explotar, apague la unidad e incline el caldero con
la perilla roja de la manivela para liberar las palomitas de maíz.
NOTA: No deje que el motor continúe funcionando después de haber explotado las
palomitas de maíz.
IMPORTANTE: Tenga mucho cuidado cuando vacíe las palomitas de maíz. Siempre
asegúrese de que la unidad esté en una encimera para que el aceite caliente residual que
sale no cause quemaduras.
11. Llene el envase para servir con palomitas de maíz al girar el selector del dispensador de
palomitas de maíz. Agregue los condimentos deseados de las palomitas de maíz al girar el
selector del dispensador de condimentos.
NOTA: El dispensador de condimentos sólo debe rellenarse con polvo de condimentos.
Los condimentos que no son en polvo pueden gotear o atascar el dispensador.
12. Después de cada lote de palomitas de maíz, verique y vacíe
cualquier pepita no explotada del captador de pepitas.
