CORD INSTRUCTION
1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. 2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. 3. If an extension cord is used, A) The marked electric rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the base of the appliance on a clean, flat surface. Caution: Do not let water or any other liquid drip into the base or on the heat shield. 2. Popping plate must lock securely to base before unit will operate. Grip the locking levers up towards the handles of popping plate, which will open the lock. Place the plate on Fig. 1 the base (handles of popping plate should be centered just above the side handles on base, see Fig.1). Once locking levers are released, the popping plate should be locked to the base. NOTE: the unit will not operate if popping plate is not positioned correctly. Rotate plate very slightly back and forth until you feel the plate fall into place within the safety mechanism. 3. Add approximately 2 teaspoons of cooking oil to popping plate (see Tips and Hints, next page, for recommended measurements). We recommend using vegetable or canola oil, but any type is suitable except olive oil. 4. Add kernels to popping plate. We recommend 1 3 cup of kernels, especially if using premium popcorn. The measuring cup provided is 12-cup capacity, and also clearly marked for 13 cup. See Tips and Hints, next page. 5. Place the inverted bowl on top of the popping plate. 6. Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet. 7. Turn the power switch to ON. 8. The stirring rod will rotate and cooking will begin. 9. When the popcorn has finished popping, grasp the locking lever against handles of popping plate, along with bowl handles together.
Fig. 2
Gently lift plate and bowl from the base (see fig.2). Turn over and place the bottom of bowl on a flat surface (see fig.3). 10. To avoid any burning of popcorn, flip the bowl as soon as popping is complete.
Fig. 4
11. Lift the popping plate off the bowl by its handles, and immediately return the plate onto the base to cool (see fig.4). CAUTION: After popping, the plate is EXTREMELY HOT. Do not put fingers near the plate. After turning the bowl over to serve, simply return popping plate directly to the base. 12. Rotation shaft continues turning until unit is switched OFF manually. IMPORTANT NOTE: We recommend letting the popcorn maker cool for at least 5 to 10 minutes between popping cycles. If the heat builds up from too many consecutive cycles, a safety mechanism may shut down functioning temporarily, in order to let unit cool down again. (After 2 or more consecutive popping cycles, this might happen mid-cycle.) Once cooled to room temperature, unit will be able to start again.

SEASONING SUGGESTIONS
Cheese Taco seasoning Popped Popcorn Approximately 6 cups popped popcorn Approximately 8 cups popped popcorn Approximately 10 cups popped popcorn Chili powders Hot sauce Packaged sauces (i.e. Alfredo) Soy sauce Italian seasoning and herbs Butter/Seasoning ratios for popcorn: 2 tablespoons melted butter for 14 cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 1 teaspoon of seasoning 3 tablespoons melted butter for 13 cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 2 teaspoons of seasoning 4 tablespoons melted butter for 12 cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 212 teaspoons to a tablespoon of seasoning The amount of seasoning depends on the intensity of the ingredients you are using it is important to let your taste be your guide.
Kernels
4 cup
1 2 teaspoons
3 cup
2 teaspoons
2 cup
1 tablespoon
Note: Premium popcorns have larger kernels, resulting in a higher yield of popcorn. If using premium popcorn, the yield of popped popcorn will be about 1 cup greater than stated above. Note: DO NOT use more than 13 cup of unpopped kernels when using premium popcorn. The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are endless. Just add melted butter and your favorite seasonings. With toppings added, popped popcorn will become much crisper and the flavors become more intense if it is heated with desired toppings in a 300F oven for about 1520 minutes before serving. For best results, heat it on a baking sheet that you have lined with foil and sprayed with cooking oil. Note: Serving bowl should not be put into oven. It is very important to use fresh popcorn. If your popcorn is old, the kernels will not fully pop and/or it may take a long time for them to pop.
