GROUNDED PLUG
To reduce the risk of electric shock this appliance has a grounded plug (2 blades
and 1 pin). If the plug does not fit fully into the electrical outlet contact a qualified
electrician. DO NOT modify the plug in any way or use an adaptor.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Wash the Cover and Measuring Cup with a soft cloth in warm soapy water. Dry
thoroughly. Wipe outside of base with a damp cloth, dry.
HOW TO USE
1. Remove the Cover from the Base.
2. For best performance, use 3 to 4 scoops of the included measuring cup/butter
melter or 1/2 a standard measuring cup of kernels.
NOTE: DO NOT EXCEED THIS AMOUNT
DO NOT ADD OIL OR BUTTER TO THE POPPING CHAMBER.
3. Replace the Cover, with the measuring cup in place, in the groove on the top
of the Base. NEVER POP KERNELS WITHOUT COVER.
4. The measuring cup can be used as a butter melting cup if buttered popcorn
is desired. Place up to 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of butter or margarine into
the measuring cup. NOTE: Melting results may vary depending on quality,
quantity and temperature of butter/margarine and popping time of kernels.
5. Place a large heat resistant bowl under the popping chute.
6. Plug unit into a 120 volt AC outlet.
7. Press the On/Off switch to the "On" (I) position.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT preheat the Corn Popper before using.
8. Popping should take approximately 3 – 4 minutes. DO NOT run the unit
for longer than 4 minutes at one time.
9. When popping is complete, turn the unit off by pressing the On/Off switch
to the "Off" (O) position and unplug the unit.
10. Use oven mitts or pot-holders and remove the measuring cup by the handle
and pour butter or margarine over popcorn. If a few pieces of popcorn
remain in the popping chamber after popping has stopped remove the
cover using oven mitts or pot-holders and pour the popcorn into the bowl.

NOTE: The cover will be hot.

11. Before popping an additional batch remove all unpopped corn from the
base.
12. If the measuring cup was used to melt butter or margarine, wash before
using to measure kernels.
13. After two batches the unit must be cooled down for at least 10 minutes.
If the unit overheats, it will stop automatically and restart after it has
cooled down. Therefore, DO NOT leave the machine plugged in if it has
stopped automatically.
HELPFUL HINTS
1. The top cover and measuring cup become hot during use and should only
be handled using oven mitts or pot holders.
2. The popped corn is hot and care should be taken to ensure that children
are kept clear from the popping chute.
3. DO NOT run the machine longer than 4 minutes for each use.
4. Never add any ingredients except kernels to the popping chamber.
5. To help retain the moisture content of the kernels, always store in an
airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
CARE AND CLEANING
1. Allow Corn Popper to cool.
2. Remove cover and invert Corn Popper Base to remove any unpopped
corn from the Popping Chamber.
3. Wash measuring cup and cover in warm soapy water. DO NOT place
in the dishwasher.
4. Wipe outside of Base with a damp cloth. DO NOT use abrasives.
DO NOT IMMERSE BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.

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 of 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.
