USING YOUR POPCORN MAKER
WARNING - Avoid contact with hot surfaces.
1. Place the Motor Base on a clean, flat surface.
2. Using the Measuring Scoop provided, measure 1 scoop of Popcorn Kernels and add
them to the Hot Air Inner Popper. The Scoop provided with this appliance is the recom-
mended batch amount. One Scoop renders about 6-8 cups of Popcorn per batch.
CAUTION: Do not overfill the product or operate it when empty. DO NOT add oil to the
Inner Popper, Popcorn is cooked using Hot Air.
3. Place the Popper Cover and secure in place. The Measuring Scoop should be placed on
top of the Popper Cover and can serve as a Butter Warming Tray.
NOTE: The Measuring Scoop/Butter Melting Tray must always be in place while in oper-
ation even if you choose not to melt butter. Do not operate the Popcorn Maker without
it.
4. The Butter Melting Tray can hold up to 3 Tablespoons of soft butter or margarine. Using
cold butter/margarine is not recommended as it will not melt during the short popping
period.
5. Place the Lid/Serving Bowl under the opening of the Popping Cover.
6. Connect Plug to the nearest 120 V AC electrical outlet and Turn the Power Switch to the
“I” position to begin the popping cycle.
Attention - First use may cause a slight odor or small smoking upon heating, it is nor-
mal. This is a result of the heating element chemical reaction. It goes away quickly.
7. Popping times vary from 2-3 minutes from when the first kernel has popped.
NOTE - Keep hands away from the Popping Chute as HOT un-popped kernels can occa-
sionally be thrown out of the inner popping base and miss the bowl. Use a napkin or
allow these kernels to cool before picking them up.
8. Once the batch of popcorn has finished turn the Power Switch back to the “O” position
to turn it off and unplug the unit from the electric outlet.
9. Make sure all popping has stopped before removing cover or Butter Melting Tray.
10. If Butter was melted using the Melting Tray carefully and preferably using a kitchen
mitt, use the tray handle to pour butter over the Popcorn in the Serving Bowl.
DO NOT ADD BUTTER INTO THE HOT AIR INNER POPPER
11. Make sure the Inner Popper is empty before making more batches. Carefully turn the
unit upside down over a trash bin to empty any kernels or bits that were left behind.

POPPING HINTS & RECIPES
• Yellow popcorn kernels usually pop larger than white kernels.
• Store popcorn in a tightly sealed container in your pantry. Do not freeze or store
popcorn kernels in the refrigerator as this can dry out the kernels and change the
popping results.

electrical outlet, remove cover and empty contents of the Inner Popper. Allow the
popper to cool for 15 minutes before restarting.
