Using the appliance

Setting up and connecting

• Remove all packaging from the appliance.
• Clean the appliance before commissioning/using it for the first time and after each use, in accordance with the information in the “Cleaning and care” section.
• Place the appliance on a level and firm surface near a mains power socket.

Using the appliance for the first time
Ingredients and quantities:

Note: Do not place butter, margarine, or similar on the non-stick hotplate, but only through the ventilation opening.
Put the corresponding quantity of vegetable oil and popping corn into the WMF KITCHENminis popcorn maker. Spread the popping corn evenly over the non-stick hotplate.
Caution! Only add vegetable oil, not butter, margarine, or similar on the hotplate, as these ingredients would burn.
Note: To make cleaning the appliance easier, we recommend only adding sugar or salt once the popcorn is ready.
Close the lid and make sure that its handles are securely connected to the handles of the base unit. Remove the cover plate while the appliance is in operation so that any excess moisture can escape.
Note: To make buttery popcorn, spread the recommended quantity of chilled butter lightly into the holes in the ventilation opening.
Plug the appliance into the mains power socket and switch the appliance on.
The popcorn turner starts to rotate.
Warning: The heating and the popcorn turner remain switched on until the appliance is unplugged or is switched off.
When after 5 minutes or so you can no longer hear the sound of bursting popping corn, switch the appliance off and unplug it from the mains power socket. Clean any residues from the ventilation opening. Any butter residue can be brushed through the holes beforehand, using a basting brush.
Caution! Screw the cover plate firmly onto the lid.
Note: The total number of popped corn grains depends on the age and moisture of the corn and can therefore vary.
Hold the handles of the lid and the base unit firmly together before turning the appliance over.
Caution! Before turning the appliance over, switch it off and pull out the mains plug from the mains power socket. Do not turn the appliance over before you have done this.
Hold both handles firmly and turn the appliance over, away from your body.
Warning: Risk of burning! Lift the base unit off of the lid using the handles and do not touch the hotplate. Beware of any escaping steam. The popcorn is now ready to serve and can be refined with sugar, salt, or other flavourings.
Note: If you want to make some more, put the prepared popcorn into another bowl and start again from step 1. However, you must first let the appliance cool down for at least 5 minutes.

Cleaning and care

• Disconnect the mains plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down.
• While the hotplate is still just warm to the touch, use a piece of kitchen towel to remove as much fat and another residue from it as possible. Also, remove the popcorn turner by turning the screw in a counter-clockwise direction.
• Wash the lid and the cover plate in lukewarm water using washing-up liquid.
  Note: Do not use abrasive detergents, metal scourers or oven cleaning products. Never immerse the base unit in water or use water to clean it. Simply put a little washing-up liquid on a damp cloth, wipe the appliance and then pat it dry.
