HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will t in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not modify the
plug in any way.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Wash the Cover and Measuring Cup with a soft cloth in warm soapy
water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Wipe outside of base with a
damp cloth and dry.
HOW TO USE
1. Place the appliance on a at, heat resistant surface.
2.For best performance, use 1 scoop of the included measuring cup/
butter melter or 1/4 of a standard measuring cup of kernels. DO NOT
EXCEED THIS AMOUNT.
IMPORTANT:
- DO NOT ADD OIL OR BUTTER TO THE POPPING CHAMBER.
- NEVER POP KERNELS WITHOUT COVER.
3. The measuring cup can be used as a butter melting cup if buttered
popcorn is desired. Place up to 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of butter or 3

margarine into the measuring cup then place back in position on top
of the cover. The butter will melt while corn is popping.
4. Place a large (3 L/Q) heat resistant bowl under the popping chute.
5. Plug unit into a 120 volt AC outlet. Press the ON/OFF switch to the
ON (I) position.
6. Popping will take only a few minutes.
7. When kernels have fully popped, press the ON/OFF switch to the
OFF (O) position then unplug the unit.
8. If butter or margarine was added to the measuring cup, use oven
mitts or pot-holders and remove the measuring cup by the handle.
Any remaining popcorn in the popping chamber can be removed
by tilting the appliance forward. Pour butter or margarine over the
popcorn in the bowl. NOTE: The cover will be hot.
9. Before popping an additional batch allow the unit to cool for
10 minutes. If there is any unpopped corn remaining in the
appliance, remove it from the base before starting a new batch.
10. If the measuring cup was used to melt butter or margarine, wash
before using to measure kernels.
11. IMPORTANT: If the unit overheats, it will stop automatically
and restart after it has cooled down. Therefore, do not leave the
machine plugged in if it has stopped automatically.
HELPFUL HINTS
1. To help retain the moisture content of the kernels, always store in an
airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
2. Kernels that are old or dried out will not pop properly. You can
freshen kernels by putting them into an air tight container. Add
1 tsp. (5ml) of water for each cup of kernels. Place the container in
the refrigerator and shake twice a day for 3 days. After 3 days, they
are ready to use.
3. The cover and measuring cup become hot during use and should only
be handled using oven mitts or pot holders.
4. The popped corn is hot and care should be taken to ensure that
children are kept clear from the popping chute.
5. Do not run the machine longer than 4 – 5 minutes for each use.
6. Never add any ingredients except kernels to the popping chamber.

A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used
if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If
the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that
it will not drape over the counter top or table top, where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.
