BEFORE FIRST USE
Clean the lid and measuring cup with a non-abrasive sponge, towel or cloth before using. Turn the Rotary Knob counterclockwise to remove the Stirring Arm from the Rotary Knob.

Wipe Stirring Bar and Cooking Surface with a non-abrasive sponge, towel or cloth. Install the Stirring Bar, make sure the Stirring Bar aligns with the Rotary Knob, and tighten the Rotary Knob clockwise to secure.

Photo A-B

1. Place the Popcorn Maker on a level surface and plug it in

2. Place a small amount of vegetable oil on the Cooking Surface according to chart on page 10 (photo A). Measure corn kernels in the included Measuring Cup (photo B).

Photo C-D

3. Add kernels to the Cooking Surface (photo C). Add the clear Bowl to the Base of the Popcorn Maker.

NOTE: DO NOT attach the Measuring Cup to the top of the Popcorn Maker, as the Steam Vents must remain open during cooking.

4. For additional buttery flavor, add pat of butter to the top of the Bowl (where the Steam Vents are located) to heat while cooking (photo D). It is recommended to use ½ tbsp butter per 1⁄3 measuring cup kernels.

Photo E -F

5. Press the Power Switch down to start cooking (photo E). Depending on the amount of popcorn and size of kernels, it may take 3-4 minutes for the popcorn to begin popping.

6. Once popping has slowed to one kernel every three seconds or longer, turn the Power Switch up to turn off the appliance and unplug the Popcorn Maker (photo F).

Photo G - H

7. Add the Measuring Cup to the top of the Bowl (photo G). It should fit s

ecurely into place. Unplug the Popcorn Maker.

8. Hold together the Bowl Handle and the Base Handle and flip the popcorn maker over. You can also hold by the Measuring Cup and the Base of the Popcorn Maker (photo H).

NOTE: DO NOT directly grab the clear Bowl or the Cooking Surface, as both will be hot after cooking. Use oven mitts if desired for additional safety!

9. Remove the Base and serve (photo I). Be sure to open the Popcorn Maker so the steam escapes away from you, as steam will be hot. Use oven gloves or a towel.

NOTE: Please wait approximately 10-12 minutes before using the Popcorn Maker again, otherwise it will overheat.

TIP: If kernels are not popping as much as desired, try soaking the rest of them in water for 10 minutes to add moisture. If popcorn kernels are old and completely dry, they won’t pop. This can also result in fluffier popcorn!
