USING YOUR POPCORN MAKER
POPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure the popcorn maker is unplugged before you begin.
2. Before using the unit, please check to be sure voltage (120V ~60Hz) is suitable
to your home.
3. Main popcorn unit has 2 function switches as follows:
4. Install popping kettle by hooking the kettle onto the kettle hooks inside the
main popcorn unit (see step 1 on page 4).
5. Insert the internal kettle plug into the socket on the ceiling inside the main
popcorn unit. (see step 2 on page 4)
6. Plug the external power cord into an electric wall outlet.
7. Before pouring oil or kernels into the kettle, lift lid using the lid tab. Add oil (1
tablespoon of vegetable, corn, peanut, or coconut oil).
CAUTION: NEVER use butter or margarine in the kettle when popping
kernels. This will cause the popcorn to burn and create an unpleasant
residue.
8. Turn both LIGHT & POP switches to ON position. The light, heater and motor
will be on. Allow the kettle to preheat oil for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Turn
the POP switch to off position, add 1/3 cup of corn kernels close lid to the
kettle. Close the plexi-door. Turn POP switch back on, stirrer will begin to
rotate and heater will heat up the oil and corn.
CAUTION: Lid is very hot – it is recommended to use an oven mitt.
Do not use more than the recommended amounts of oil or popcorn for
popping.
9. Popcorn starts popping out through the lid after approximately 2 minutes.
10. When unit is finished popping – you will no longer hear the corn popping –
immediately turn the POP switch to the OFF position and pull down the handle
bar of the kettle to release any remaining popcorn in the kettle. This will also
stop the remaining popcorn from cooking any further and prevent burning.
11. Keep POP switch off if the unit is not in use. Always allow the kettle to cool-
down approximately 5-10 minutes between continuous batches to avoid over-
heating the kettle.
12. WARMING LIGHT: If popcorn is kept inside the machine, the LIGHT switch can
remain on to keep the popcorn warm and fresh.
13. Remove plug from power supply when the unit is not being used.
14. Repeat steps 8 through 10 for continuous popping.
- LIGHT: to turn the internal light bulb on.
- POP: to turn the stirring stick motor & heater on.
