BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Please check all packaging material carefully before discarding. Many accessory parts are contained within the packaging material. Clean all parts using instructions from the “Cleaning Your Theater-Style™ Popper” section of this manual.

USING YOUR THEATER-STYLE™ POPPER

1.Wash door, popcorn tray, and measuring cup and spoon in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Use a soapy dishcloth to wipe the interior of the cabinet, then rinse with a damp, non-soapy cloth and dry thoroughly. Wash interior and lid of kettle with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not immerse kettle in water and do not get water on the black electrical box or cord.

2.Hang the kettle on the hooks with the handle towards the door. Plug the cord from the kettle into the outlet in the ceiling of the popper. DO NOT plug the kettle directly into a wall outlet.

3.Using the measuring spoon and cup provided, place one spoonful (1 tbsp.) of oil into the kettle followed by one cupful (⅓ cup) of popcorn kernels, then close lid. Note: DO NOT attempt to pop more than the recommended amount of popcorn at one time and DO NOT use more than the recommended amount of oil when popping, as damage to the kettle may occur.

4.Plug the cord from the cabinet into a 120 v, AC outlet ONLY. Close the cabinet door then press the “ON/OFF” switch to “ON.” The light will illuminate, the stir rod will spin, and the kettle will begin heating.

5.After about 4 minutes, popcorn should begin to pop. Let popcorn pop until there is a pause of 2-3 seconds between pops. Press “ON/OFF” switch to “OFF,” then tilt the kettle so the remaining popcorn and kernels fall out of the kettle. Be sure to use a hotpad or oven mitt to tilt the kettle. Note: The lightbulb is controlled by the “ON/OFF” switch. Turning the popper off will turn the light off.

6.If popping more popcorn, add oil and kernels to the kettle, close the lid, then press the “ON/OFF” switch back to “ON.” Repeat steps 3 & 5 as necessary.
