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
desiredpopcorn seasonings by turning the Seasoning Dispenser Dials.

HELPFUL TIPS
NEVER leave the unit unattended while operating.
SMOKING
If your SMART POP-O-MATIC VENDING MACHINE 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 SMART POP-O-MATIC VENDING MACHINE 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.
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.

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.
