HELPFUL HINTS
1. To help retain the moisture content of the kernels, always store in an
airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
2. Kernels that are old or dried out will not pop properly. You can
freshen kernels by putting them into an airtight container. Add 1 tsp.
(5ml) of water for each cup of kernels. Place the container in the
refrigerator and shake twice a day for 3 days. After 3 days, they are
ready to use.
3. The Cover and Base become hot during use and should only be
handled using oven mitts or pot holders.
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.

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 nish may discolour. This will
not aect the performance of the Popcorn Maker. To remove the
discolouration use a soft cloth saturated with lemon juice or vinegar
and rub over the nish. Wipe with a clean damp cloth and dry.

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.
