Place transparent cover on the opening
of the popping chamber and place the
combined measuring tray/butter dish
onto the opening on top of the cover.
Place a large heat proof bowl directly
under the popping chute to collect the
popcorn.
Switch the Popcorn Factory on by
pressing down on the On/Off switch,
which is located on the side of the
machine. Ensure there are no obstructions
inside or below the chute which could
obstruct the popped corn from falling
directly into the bowl.
WARNING.
As this unit performs by
circulating very hot air in its chamber, it is
important to check to ensure that no
corn (popped or otherwise) is caught in
the heating section, as burning will result
with a subsequent emission of smoke.
CAUTION.
Some hot unpopped
corn may be thrown from the machine
during the popping process. Be sure to
place the quick popper facing away from
you; do not stand in front of the machine
while it is in operation.
When the Popcorn Factory stops popping
corn in the heating chamber, switch the
machine off.
Note: If buttered popcorn is desired, place up to
45ml (2 tablespoons) of butter in a single layer in
the combined measuring tray/butter dish, which is
placed on top of the transparent cover.The butter
will melt during the popping period.
Do not remove the combination
measuring tray and butter dish from the
Popcorn Factory cover until the popping
cycle is complete and the machine has
been turned off.
After the popcorn has been popped and
collected in the heat proof bowl, pour the
butter onto the popcorn.
IMPORTANT:
Do not place any oils,
salt, shortening, butter or margarine in the
popping chamber.The Popcorn Factory
operates without oil. Use of such
substances will cause hazards and could
cause damage to the unit.
If you plan to pop more corn, allow the
Popcorn Factory to cool for at least 10
minutes. Remove any unpopped corn left
in the popping chamber using oven mitts
to lift the cover off the base, turn base
upside down to remove unpopped corn.
Do not place hands inside the popping
chamber as it becomes very hot during
operation. Replace the cover and start
again.
CAUTION.
Do not operate the
Popcorn Factory in excess of 5 minutes.
Some corn kernels may not pop and
should be discarded. Allow the machine to
cool down for a further 10 minutes
between uses.
CARE AND CLEANING
The Popcorn Factory should be cleaned
after each use. Always turn the power Off,
and then turn the machine off at the
power outlet. Remove the plug from the
power outlet and allow to cool before
cleaning.
Wipe the outside of the Popcorn Factory
base with a dampened cloth and wipe dry.
