BEFORE FIRST USE
After unpacking the Popcorn Maker with Melting Station, follow
the Cleaning & Maintenance instructions on page 10.
POPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the popcorn maker and melting station base on a
flat, dry surface.
2. Place popping plate on base.
3. It is not necessary to preheat the unit.
4. Pour the recommended amount of oil onto the popping
plate (do not add more oil than recommended and do not
substitute with butter, margarine, shortening or lard, as
these will burn and cause excessive smoking).
NOTE: You may use either vegetable, peanut or canola oil
for popping.
5. Add the recommended amount of corn kernels spread out
evenly across the popping plate.

6. Place popping bowl on the popping plate, making sure
handles of the popping bowl line up and fit into the handles
on the popping plate.
7.
Do not place black lid on the popping bowl during the
popping process. The vents in the popping bowl will
allow steam to release during the popping process.
8. Plug into an outlet and turn the unit on by turning the
rocker switch to the left of the control panel to the POP
position. The stirring rod will rotate as long as the popcorn
maker is in the POP position. In approximately 3½ minutes
(depending on quantity and type of kernels being popped),
the popping cycle will be complete and you will no longer
hear the corn popping. Turn the popcorn maker power
switch to the OFF position and unplug from outlet if you are
not utilizing the melting station.
