GROUNDED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
DESCRIPTION OF PARTS
1. Plastic Cap
2. Cover
3. Stirring Rod
4. Center Knob
5. Popping Surface
6. Base
7. On/Off switch
HOW TO USE
1. Place the Base on a flat, dry surface close to a 120 volt AC outlet.
2. See the chart below and measure the proper amount of vegetable oil and
kernels. Pour oil onto the Popping Surface then spread the corn kernels
evenly over Popping Surface.
NOTE: DO NOT add more corn kernels or oil than is recommended.
DO NOT substitute butter, margarine, shortening or lard for vegetable
oil as they will burn or smoke excessively.
3. Place Cover on Base making sure the handles of the Cover fit into the
handles of the Base.
4. Remove the Plastic Cap.
5. If butter corn is desired, divide recommended amount of refrigerated
butter into 6 equal-sized pats and place in a single layer over the butter
holes in the Butter Well. If unrefrigerated butter is used, add to Butter
Well after the first corn kernel pops.
6. Plug the Popcorn Maker into the outlet and switch the unit to the 'I'

7. The Stirring Rod will start to rotate and will rotate as long as the switch
is in the 'I' position. Do not shake the unit during the popping cycle.
8. The popping cycle is complete when the popping sound becomes
infrequent or less intense. To avoid burning the popcorn, immediately
press the On/Off switch to the Off (O) position and unplug the unit from
the wall outlet. Snap the Plastic Cap securely onto the Butter Well. Using
oven mitts, grasp the handles and flip the Popcorn Maker upside down,
turning it away from you. Lift the Popcorn Maker Base away from the
Cover, being careful of the escaping steam.
9. Popcorn is ready to serve. If desired, sprinkle salt or seasonings over the
popcorn.
10. If additional batches of popcorn are desired, transfer popcorn into
another serving bowl and allow the Corn Popper to cool with the Cover
off, then follow steps 2 – 10.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the Corn Popper is still hot when popping subsequent
batches, the kernels will not pop as efficiently as the first batch.
IMPORTANT: After two batches the unit must be cooled down for at least
15 minutes.

CARE AND CLEANING
1. Allow the Corn Popper to cool.
2. Wash the Cover and Plastic Cap in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do
not use scouring pads or abrasive powder on the cover as these could
scratch the plastic.
3. Remove the Stirring Rod from the Base by turning the Center Knob
counter clockwise and lifting up the Stirring Rod near the center of the
Rod. Wash the Stirring Rod and Knob in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. NOTE: Be careful not to bend the Stirring Rod. Only remove
or replace the Stirring Rod at the center of the Rod. DO NOT pull on the
ends of the Rod.
4. Clean the non-stick surface of the base with a damp soapy cloth, sponge
or nylon scouring pad that is safe for non-stick surfaces. Do not use
abrasive scouring pads or powders. NOTE: Do not let water or any liquid
accumulate on the Popping Surface as it will enter the base of the unit
under the Center Knob and damage the Corn Popper.
5. After consistent use, the non-stick finish may discolour. This will not affect
the performance of the Popcorn Maker. To remove the discolouration use a
soft cloth saturated with lemon juice or vinegar and rub over the finish.
Wipe with a clean damp cloth and dry.
NOTE: Do not place the Cover, Plastic Cap, Stirring Rod, Base or Cord in the
dishwasher.

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.
