9.Additional batches: Before popping additional batches, make sure the popping chamber is empty. Using hot pads, remove the cover and turn the unit upside down to remove popcorn or unpopped kernels. Wash the butter melter if it was used to melt butter. Then repeat steps 3 through 9.

IMPORTANT: This popper is thermostatically controlled. It will shut off to prevent overheating, if the popping cham- ber is overfilled or if the popper is used for continuous popping for extended periods of time without turning it off and allowing it to cool. Should this happen, unplug the popper from the wall outlet, remove cover, and empty any popped or unpopped corn from the popping chamber. Allow the popper to cool for about 15 minutes before using again.

How To Clean

1.Allow unit to cool before cleaning.

2.Wash the cover and butter melter in warm soapy water.

Do not wash in dishwasher. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Wipe the corn popper base, including the popping chamber, clean and dry with a soft dry cloth. Never immerse the corn popper base in water or other liquid. Do not scour surfaces with steel wool or abrasive cleaners.

Place cover on unit when storing between uses.

A short cord has been provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the exten- sion cord should be at least 12.5 amps —120 volts —1500 watts. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

Helpful Hints

1.This popper is designed to pop regular and premium brands of popcorn. Try different brands to find the one you like best. Yellow popcorn generally pops larger than white.

2.Some varieties of small and lighter weight kernel popcorn are not recommended for use with this hot air popper. Refer to any additional instructions by popcorn manufacturer.

3.Always use fresh popcorn. Older dried out popcorn pops poorly and may cause scorching or smoking. To freshen dried out popcorn, place the unpopped corn in an airtight container, leaving space to shake the corn. Add one teaspoon of water for each cup of popcorn. Shake the container several times a day for 2 or 3 days to distribute the moisture evenly. Store the tightly sealed container in the refrigerator.

4.Carefully select the bowl you will be using to collect popped corn. A metal bowl may become very hot to the touch due to the flow of hot air from the chute and must be handled carefully. It will, however, tend to keep the popcorn warm. If a plastic bowl is used, be certain it can withstand the heat caused by the warm air flow without melting.

5.Never use more than 12 level cup popcorn per batch. This popper was designed to pop 12 level cup popcorn. Using less than 12 cup may increase the number of unpopped kernels.

6.Tipping the popper toward the bowl slightly when popping stops will help clear popped corn from the chamber.

Lite Oil Popcorn Recipe
