CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
It is strongly recommended to clean the kettle frequently to avoid
burning excess oil onto the bottom of the inner pot.
After using the popcorn machine, let it cool and use a wet
cloth to clean the main unit, main body and door. It is strongly
recommended to wash and dry the tray after each use to avoid
any bacteria buildup. The light bulb is replaceable with a
120 volt/10 watt bulb.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized
service representative.
QUICK CLEANING PROCEDURE
Turn the switch to OFF. Pour 4 to 6 ounces (0.12–0.18 liter) of
water (NO detergent is necessary) into inner pot. Switch to POP
to boil the water and let the stirrer turn in order to remove excess
oil stuck on the surface. After about 1 to 2 minutes of boiling,
allow to cool, then pour the water into a deep bowl and discard.
CAUTION: THE KETTLE IS HOT.
Or, remove the kettle and clean it with a Scotch-Brite®scouring
pad. Do not immerse kettle or electrical plug in water.

previous page).
3. Main unit has a 2-function switch as follows:
– POP to turn heater, stirrer and light on
– OFF to turn power off
4. Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet.
5. Before pouring oil or popcorn, lift lid up using the lid tab.
Turn the switch to the POP position. The stirrer will begin
to rotate in the kettle. Let the stainless steel kettle preheat
about 2 to 3 minutes. Add oil (1 tablespoon of vegetable,
corn, peanut, or safower oil). Immediately add 1/3 cup
(70 grams) cup of corn kernels (Note: 1-tablespoon measure
and 1/3 cup [70 grams] measuring cup included) and close
lid to the kettle.
Caution: Lid might be hot – it is recommended to use
an oven mitt.
6. Popcorn starts popping out through the lid after about
2 minutes. Yields up to 8 cups (1.89 liters) per batch in less
than 3 minutes.
7. When unit is nished popping – you will no longer hear
the corn popping – immediately turn switch to the OFF
position and rotate the knob of the kettle down to release
any remaining popcorn in the popper. This will also stop
the remaining popcorn from cooking any further and avoid
possible burning.
8. Keep POP switch off if the unit is not continuously in use.
9. Remove plug from power supply if the unit is not being
used.
10. Repeat steps 4 to 7 for continuous popping.
